Hungarian locals and visitors of the Bashaw, Ab. area gathered in traditional song to commemorate the implementation of a new plaque that<br />
honours the Hungarian settlers who homesteaded in the area on Sun. March 17. The plaque was installed at the St. Michael’s Roman Catholic<br />
Cemetery west of Bashaw. Approximately 100 people attended the event including Hungarian dignitaries and others who came to visit Canada<br />
for this special occasion. The 65-year-old Catholic Church perched on the hill southwest of the cemetery was also open for visitors to explore.<br />

<strong>ECA</strong> <strong>Review</strong><br />
A new piece of Delburne’s history<br />
took place as the Delburne Medical<br />
Centre held its grand opening on Fri.<br />
March 8, <strong><strong>20</strong>19</strong>, which was attended by a<br />
number of civic dignitaries, the medical<br />
team, the Pharmasave team, as<br />
well as many from the public.<br />
It was historic because the Village of<br />
Delburne has never provided this professional<br />
service to the area before.<br />
The ceremony kicked off with the<br />
mayor of Delburne, Bill Chandler welcoming<br />
everyone followed by several<br />
short speeches.<br />
“This facility is fulfilling a community<br />
need. It was a year ago this month<br />
that we put shovels in the ground,”<br />
said Andrew Anderson of Anderson<br />
Consulting.<br />
“It’s great to see this facility in rural<br />
Alberta,” added MLA Devon Dreeshen,<br />
Innisfail-Sylvan Lake Constituency.<br />
“It’s an exciting addition [that is]<br />
greatly needed.”<br />
Ribbon cutting ceremonies followed<br />
for both the medical centre and the<br />
pharmacy.<br />
Dr. Muti Kauchali, the individual<br />
who spearheaded the project, hosted<br />
tours to all who wished to see the new<br />
facility.<br />
Joe Brown, a local resident commented,<br />
“It’s great to have such a great<br />
service locally.”<br />
Ray Reckseidler<br />
<strong>ECA</strong> <strong>Review</strong><br />
At the March 12 meeting, Delburne<br />
council passed a motion that approved<br />
the Amended MSI Agreement with the<br />
Provincial Government under the<br />
Municipal Sustainability Initiative<br />
(MSI) that would see the municipality<br />
receive both operating and capital<br />
funding extended through to March 31,<br />
<strong>20</strong>22.<br />
Last year the village received<br />
$219,233 in capital funding.<br />
Village Chief Administrative Officer<br />
(CAO) Karen Fegan declined to provide<br />
the amounts the village is expected to<br />
receive.<br />
Discussion continued on the proposed<br />
update of the village website.<br />
Some of the changes include adding<br />
photos of council members, contact<br />
information and images of Main Street<br />

discussed making the<br />
replacement of old fire<br />
hydrants a major capital<br />
expense following several<br />
water breaks involving<br />
broken hydrants over<br />
the last couple of years.<br />
Resident Doug Thomas<br />

as a hydrant break in<br />
the industrial park and<br />

The overall residential assessment<br />

because we actually had a negative<br />
growth last year so that’s a positive<br />

Cont’d from Pg 3<br />
Council heard that the <strong>20</strong>18 year<br />
ended on a positive note again with a<br />
surplus that council agreed to place<br />
into restricted surplus accounts.<br />
A surplus transfer of $2<strong>20</strong>,000 into<br />
the following capital accounts<br />
including Common Services<br />
Equipment at $50,000; Roads at $50,000;<br />
Airport at $50,000; Recreation at<br />
$50,000 and Wellness Centre at $<strong>20</strong>,000.<br />
“I’m wondering if we should do a<br />
fire hydrant program?,” questioned<br />
Coun. Vickey Horkoff.<br />
Kulyk confirmed that a program<br />
under operating is budgeted for two<br />
new fire hydrants a year and “is anywhere<br />
between $10,000 and I think it<br />
was $30,000 last year,” said Kulyk.<br />
“We need to start replacing those<br />
olds ones,” said Horkoff.<br />
“And just get it all done,” Coun.<br />
Jackie Brigley added.<br />
“You could do it as a major capital<br />
replacement,” offered Kulyk.<br />
There are 52 or 53 fire hydrants in<br />
the town confirmed Kulyk.<br />
“You can certainly change your<br />
allocations in reserves at anytime,”<br />
said CAO Kulyk, “so if you want to<br />
revisit it later on in the year you certainly<br />
can.”<br />
Council will also consider Deputy<br />
Mayor Ron Checkel’s question, “Do we<br />
want to look at starting to run fibre<br />
optics to everything in town?”<br />
“Start building a fund, that would<br />
be a good idea,” said Kulyk.<br />
Broadband<br />
Council discussed the government’s<br />
priority to have all small communities<br />
with broadband access.<br />
“They [provincial government] have<br />
made it a priority,” said Coun. Cook,<br />
“they just haven’t put money as a priority<br />
yet.”<br />
“BRAED [Battle River Alliance for<br />
Economic Development] has done a<br />
research project on a viable broadband<br />
for us,” said Cook, “and through all<br />
the research they have done, they’re<br />
saying the government is going to have<br />
to be our partner to bring broadband<br />
in. The communities aren’t going to be<br />
able to afford it.<br />
“They’ve [government] made it a priority,<br />
they just haven’t financially<br />
made it a priority,” concluded Cook.<br />
Council had heard at their last<br />
meeting from councillors Horkoff and<br />
Brigley, who had attended a group<br />
meeting with Castor and County councillors,<br />
that determined costs to get<br />
fibre optics into the communities<br />
would be “$3.2 million for this whole<br />
region” and that would not include getting<br />
fibre optics into each household.<br />

as to what the<br />

“They took up a<br />

An additional<br />
Castor CAO finishes 39-year career<br />
Terri Huxley<br />
<strong>ECA</strong> <strong>Review</strong><br />
Sandy Jackson has concluded a 39<br />
year career with the Town of Castor.<br />
She originally began as Assistant<br />
Chief Administrative Officer (CAO)<br />
and then transitioned into CAO ten<br />
years ago.<br />
Jackson began her career with the<br />
town almost immediately after finishing<br />
her studies at Reeves College in<br />
Red Deer.<br />
She studied to be in paralegal<br />
administration but fate had other<br />
plans.<br />
“It just so happened that I was just<br />
finishing and so I got this job. The<br />
timing was perfect,” she said.<br />
Over the years, Jackson has seen it<br />
all, including the change in town office<br />
buildings and community hall.<br />
The previous office building is<br />
located next to the current facility but<br />
was very close quarters as the fire<br />
hall, two administrators, and public<br />
works were sharing the space for a<br />
short time.<br />
“It was a little crowded,” she said.<br />
Then the County built their new<br />
building near Highway 12 in <strong>20</strong>10,<br />
allowing the town an opportunity to<br />
take over the building.<br />
Now, most of the offices are utilized.<br />
“The biggest change from when I<br />
started was that we had one electric<br />
typewriter – no computers. There’s<br />
just a big NCR posting machine that<br />
we did all the utility bills by hand and<br />
everything by hand which balanced<br />
everything. Like all of our financial<br />
ledgers were balanced by calculating<br />
so we went from that to computers and<br />
I think we brought those in 1984.<br />
However, there is far more paperwork<br />
now than there was back in 1980,” said<br />
Jackson.<br />
As for council, the veteran CAO has<br />
seen turnover of 14 different councils<br />
altogether.<br />
Her favourite part of being CAO<br />
with the town was the various beautification<br />
projects including<br />
horticulture, the pathways connected<br />
throughout the park and the recently<br />
constructed Community Centre.<br />
“The anticipation of knowing that<br />
something is not going to go well and<br />
you better be prepared because some<br />
people aren’t going to be happy,” she<br />
said. “That to me is one of the more<br />

Jackson now has time to spend<br />
tending to her garden, travelling, and<br />
volunteering thanks to retirement.<br />
One of the things, she is looking forward<br />
to is dedicating more time to the<br />
Castor Legion for a special World War<br />
1 and World War 2 mural of the fallen<br />
soldiers.<br />
“All together there are 39 fallen soldiers<br />
between World War 1 and 2 and<br />
we have been getting plaques with<br />
their pictures and we are hanging<br />
them in the Legion,” she said.<br />
She also teaches Aquafit in the<br />
summer months, a passion of hers for<br />
the past 13 years.<br />
As for winter activities, she will<br />
follow many snowbirds south to vacation<br />
and soak in the sun rays.<br />
Taking her place is Christopher<br />
Robblee, a skilled man in both the<br />
public and private sector with multiple<br />
years of education and experience to<br />
add to the town.<br />
“I know the staff that is here right<br />

think the town is in really good hands,<br />

Dragons season closes<br />
Terri Huxley<br />
<strong>ECA</strong> <strong>Review</strong><br />
With a nail biting five-game series<br />
between the Drumheller Dragons and<br />
Canmore Eagles Junior A Hockey<br />
teams, the Dragon’s season has come to<br />
an abrupt end.<br />
On Wed. Mar. 13, the Dragons hosted<br />
the Eagles in front of a full house of<br />
spectators.<br />
Leading up the intense evening, the<br />
hometown team consisting of players<br />
from all over Western Canada began<br />
the beginning of playoffs at home on<br />
Thur. March 7. The Eagles won 2 – 1 in<br />
overtime.<br />
Game 2 was also held at the<br />
Drumheller Memorial Arena the next<br />
night. The Dragons bounced back<br />
scoring 3 – 2.<br />
Back at the Canmore Recreation<br />
Centre, Game 3 showed intense spirit<br />
from both sides as both had scored four<br />
goals by the time the third period clock<br />
timed out. In overtime, the Dragons<br />
prevailed, scoring the fifth and final<br />
goal of the night.<br />
SPORTS<br />
Game 4 took place on Mon. March 11<br />
in Canmore. The Eagles were able to<br />
take two points off the Dragons, leaving<br />
the game 2 – 1.<br />
The back and forth matches led to a<br />
rowdy crowd on Wed. March 13 for the<br />
determining round of play.<br />
For two periods, neither team scored<br />
on net.<br />
The Third period vibe changed when<br />
the Dragons broke the dry spell at 5:44<br />
on the power play thanks to Brady Risk<br />
who was assisted by Derrick Budz.<br />
Less than 10 minutes later, the Eagles<br />
fought back, tying the score 1 – 1 at<br />
14:29.<br />
Not even <strong>20</strong> seconds later, a stunned<br />
audience watched as the Eagles scored a<br />
second time, which eventually sealed<br />
the Dragon’s fate.<br />
The team has six players moving on<br />
to higher ranking hockey teams. They<br />
finished third in the regular season<br />
after accumulating 78 points behind the<br />
Brooks Bandits and Okotoks Oilers.<br />
The Eagles, winners of the series,<br />
have advanced to round two against the<br />

Bantam Jets win big<br />
by Karson Swanson<br />
On March 12 at the Servus Sports<br />
Center in Lloydminster, the Bantam<br />
Jets won their league banner against<br />
the Lloydminster Bantam 3 in a close<br />
game ending in a score of 4-3. This<br />
year’s Bantam Jets are a combination<br />
of Chauvin, Edgerton, Czar,<br />
Hughenden, Wainwright and Hardisty<br />
players, and with only 12 skaters and<br />
one goalie, they have been a close-knit<br />
and hard-working group all year. As<br />
all of these towns came together to<br />
make one team, the year went really<br />
well.<br />
“It was a good year, we played good<br />
for the most part,” said Jets player Izak<br />
Fisher. So well, in fact, that the team<br />
only lost two games in the entire regular<br />
season.<br />
In the playoffs, the Jets triumphed<br />
over Wainwright in two games in<br />
February, bringing them to this final<br />
series against the third of five<br />
Lloydminster Bantam teams. The<br />
first game of the final series was<br />
played in Chauvin on February 26,<br />
with the Jets taking a 6-3 victory.<br />
Then in a hard-fought game on March<br />
2, the Jets were down by two going<br />
into the third period, and they managed<br />
to pull out the win in the end.<br />
“The offence was a little low but the<br />
goalie played good,” said Jets fan<br />
Hayden McQuaid, when asked for his<br />
thoughts on the Jets performance in<br />
the final game. And as the goalie on<br />
this team, this author would have to<br />
agree with him. It felt nice to get a<br />
reward for all of our hard work.<br />

The second crash of the Boeing 737<br />
Max jet in Ethiopia claiming 157 lives<br />
came five months after the same model<br />
nosedived in Indonesia killing 189.<br />
China, the country of few human<br />
rights and safety regulations, immediately<br />
grounded the planes as did<br />
virtually everyone else.<br />
Transport Canada was very slow to<br />
take the 737 Max out of service, likely<br />
because it will hurt the profit margins<br />
of Canadian airlines, especially Air<br />
Canada. Not surprisingly, the United<br />
States was last to respond.<br />

other options.<br />
After the second crash, Boeing CEO<br />
Dennis Muilenburg called President<br />
Trump to assure him that their planes<br />
were safe.<br />
This particular series employs<br />
12,000 direct employees in Washington<br />
State plus thousands upon thousands<br />
of spinoff jobs. To them profits were<br />
paramount and safety was secondary.<br />
With the majority of deaths in these<br />
crashes being browns, blacks and from<br />
‘shithole’ countries” (as described by<br />
Trump), there was even less incentive<br />
for Trump to care about the dead.<br />
But there is more to the story than<br />
just Donald Trump. Libertarians and<br />
political parties on the right have been<br />
routinely weakening regulations and<br />
undermining the role of regulators<br />
since the 1980s.<br />
The reluctance for the United States<br />
government to err on the side of safety<br />
rather than corporate profits is the<br />
eventual outcome of watered down<br />
regulations, industry self-compliance<br />
and weak oversight agencies.<br />
Today the Federal Aviation<br />
Association (FAA) is a head-less<br />
<br />
EDITORIAL<br />
“<br />
MAIL BAG<br />
agency (Trump never named a<br />
director), seriously underfunded, lacks<br />
experts to monitor corporations for<br />
safety compliance and rely solely on<br />
manufacturers to test and approve<br />
new aircrafts.<br />
The few experts remaining at the<br />
FAA routinely rotate between industry<br />
jobs and the FAA making the compliance<br />
organization a prostitute to<br />
industry or a toothless imposter. It was<br />
rather telling that the black boxes were<br />
sent to France to be analyzed, not the<br />
FAA.<br />
On this file, Trump and Muilenburg<br />
misread the safety concerns. Pilots<br />
from first world countries, too, had<br />
been expressing concerns about software<br />
flaws in the Boeing 737 Max<br />
series and poor training. First-world<br />
passengers were as fearful to board a<br />
Boeing 737 Max as those from ‘shit<br />
hole’ countries.<br />
Without trustworthy regulators,<br />
consumers lose trust, economic<br />
growth suffers and unfortunately<br />
lives are needlessly lost, or land, air<br />
and water are comprised or ruined<br />
permanently.<br />
We live the same thing in Alberta<br />
where the relationship between<br />
Conservative governments, the oil and<br />
gas industry, the Energy Resources<br />
Conservation Board and the Alberta<br />
Energy Regulators has led to public<br />
distrust. As regulations and oversight<br />
softened or disappeared, industry<br />
spent less money on pipeline maintenance,<br />
was quite irresponsible on a<br />
number of significant pipeline ruptures<br />
and more often than not pushed<br />
landowners to fear for their property<br />
rights.<br />
Protests and lawsuits happen when<br />
people feel there are no other options.<br />
Separation of power (industry and regulators)<br />
and checks and balances are<br />
absolutely critical for trust. Fair and<br />
reasonable regulations, compliance,<br />
independent oversight, restitution and<br />
appropriate penalties all build trust.<br />
Even though pipelines are the safest<br />
method to transport oil, in both<br />
Canada and the United States, their<br />
construction now garners unbelievable<br />
pushback.<br />
I often wonder if governments had<br />
not ceded their powers and become<br />
puppets of industry, would Boeing and<br />
our oil industry be enjoying better<br />
times?<br />
Albertans need options<br />
Dear Editor,<br />
It is abundantly clear that Albertans<br />
currently have little to no say about<br />
“equalization”, “transfer payments”,<br />
“pipeline progress” and “carbon<br />
taxes”. Why?<br />
The Canadian federal government<br />
which is controlled by voters in south<br />
central Canada, possesses the power in<br />
the constitution to do those things.<br />
If you want any or all of those things<br />
to change, then Albertans need options<br />
that do not include the Canadian federal<br />
government or Canada for that<br />
matter.<br />

PRAIRIEVIEW<br />
Property rights<br />
by Herman Schwenk<br />
The United Conservative Party<br />
(UCP) has recently come up with an<br />
eight point plan that is supposed to<br />
restore property rights to us in<br />
Alberta.<br />
This initiative is on the right track<br />
and long overdue but it has some<br />
glaring omissions, which I will try to<br />
highlight.<br />
“<br />
The real problem<br />
with trying to instill<br />
property rights in Alberta<br />
is the bureaucracy.<br />
Having a plan and getting it into<br />
approved legislation will not be easy.<br />
Years ago I can remember attending<br />
PC conventions at which we presented<br />
well thought out resolutions on property<br />
rights to the meeting that were<br />
debated and passed.<br />
Well, that always seemed to be the<br />
last we heard of them.<br />
During the Stelmach years, the government<br />
passed four acts that actually<br />
removed property rights. Those were<br />
bills 19, 24, 36 and 50.<br />
Bill 50 was repealed a few years ago<br />
so it is no longer an issue.<br />
The most egregious of those bills was<br />
section 11 in Bill 36.<br />
If I remember right it gave the government<br />
the right to confiscate or<br />

change the use of land from corporations<br />
and/or individuals alike.<br />
The real problem with trying to<br />
instill property rights in Alberta is the<br />
bureaucracy.<br />
By instilling property rights, it<br />
removes power from the bureaucrats<br />
so they will strenuously oppose it.<br />
That is why our property rights resolutions<br />
never got to first base.<br />
Those iniquitous bills were passed,<br />
I think over 10 years ago, and gave<br />
civil servants tremendous power over<br />
property in Alberta.<br />
The glaring omission in the UCP<br />
property rights plan is that it does not<br />
mention doing anything about those<br />
bills.<br />
They need to be repealed or seriously<br />
revamped so that property<br />
owners and the lessees have control of<br />
that property again.<br />
The other issue with that plan is the<br />
Special Areas Act.<br />
This Act gives the Municipal<br />
Minister absolute dictatorial power<br />
over property in a large area of Alberta<br />
since it was passed in 1938.<br />
The board that administers the Act<br />
is approved by the minister and is<br />
responsible to the minister, not to the<br />
residents who live in the area.<br />
In 1980, David and Linda Hansen<br />
bought a ranch near Cessford, Ab. that<br />
had a small dam on it.<br />
A year or two later the government<br />
wanted the dam and adjacent lands for<br />
an irrigation project.<br />
They determined that the dam had<br />
no value and so the Hansen’s refused<br />
access.<br />
The Hansen’s spent $100,000 on legal<br />
fees and the government spent<br />
$1,000,000 dollars.<br />

STARS representative Gisele Dickson and NAIT lab/X-ray student<br />

the Three Hills Hospital lobby on March 15. <strong>ECA</strong> <strong>Review</strong>/D. Nadeau<br />
David Nadeau<br />
<strong>ECA</strong> <strong>Review</strong><br />
In the coin toss of life, Bruce and Gisele<br />
Dickson of Black Diamond, Ab. decided that<br />
helping STARS was better than being a snowbird.<br />
That’s why Bruce was in the Drumheller<br />
Hospital and Gisele at the Three Hills Hospital on<br />
March 15, <strong><strong>20</strong>19</strong> representing STARS Air<br />
Ambulance.<br />
“Bruce and I sell STARS calendars around the<br />
province for eight months,” said Mrs. Dickson,<br />
“and during snowbird season [we] do hospital<br />
meet and greets.”<br />
In <strong>20</strong>18, the couple took their friend-making<br />
and awareness tour to more than 80 mostly rural<br />
hospitals. Last week, they were in Taber,<br />
Raymond, Brooks, Bassano, Hanna, Oyen, Three<br />
Hills, and Drumheller.<br />
In the Three Hills Hospital lobby, Dickson sold<br />
STARS clothing, calendars, and toys, greeted<br />
hospital visitors and staff, thanked donors for<br />
their support, answered questions and demonstrated<br />
what she says about herself:<br />
“I’ve been helping STARS for 17 years and I’m<br />
still passionate about their work. It is an honour<br />
to be associated with them.”<br />
The STARS Air Ambulance started in 1985,<br />
operates 11 planes across western Canada, and<br />
conducted nearly 1,400 missions from its three<br />
Alberta bases last year.

Ab. on Wed. March 13. High school students from Three Hills, Hanna, Cessford, Youngstown and Drumheller<br />
came to the facility with an open mind, most of which discovered a career path they might not have thought of<br />
pursuing before. Junior Achievement puts on the annual event across multiple school districts to give students the<br />
opportunity to have open dialogue with people in the industry of their choosing. Groups of eight sat at a table to<br />
listen to a mentor for roughly 10 minutes, asking questions and gaining insight. There were six individual sessions<br />
and ‘Be Brave’ was the overall theme of the event. <br />

Two males were arrested following<br />
a search in an open field for a White<br />

The arrest would not have been possible<br />
without the assistance of three<br />
Flagstaff County locals.<br />
Gregory Bader, 41, of Red Deer,was<br />
charged with three counts of break<br />
and enter to commit, five counts of<br />

Churchill Water System<br />
Rehabilitation report<br />
Terri Huxley<br />
<strong>ECA</strong> <strong>Review</strong><br />
During the regular council meeting<br />
held on March 12, Kneehill County<br />
council received the Churchill Water<br />
System Rehabilitation Report.<br />
With this report they decided to<br />
direct administration to draft letters to<br />
existing Churchill users, outlining the<br />
details of the project.<br />
The rehabilitation of the Churchill<br />
Water System is meant to allow all current<br />
users of the system to receive a<br />
more consistent, reliable service.<br />
Existing users of the Water System<br />
will be required to have their service<br />
connection retrofitted with flow control<br />
and pressure regulation to<br />
conform with new engineered designs.<br />
These retrofits will be performed by<br />
Kneehill County staff.<br />
Laurie Watt appointed<br />

Council made the decision to appoint<br />
Laurie Watt as interim Chief<br />

In 1990, Kneehill County Council<br />
granted the Three Hills and District<br />
Seed Cleaning Plant Ltd. $266,666 for<br />
the purposes of constructing the<br />
facility.<br />
Administration researched the<br />
matter, consulted with legal counsel<br />
and with the auditors regarding this<br />
request and the implications of<br />
granting this potential request.<br />
This is an unamortized capital contribution,<br />
that is, there are no financial<br />
statement impacts to the County.<br />
Council, after agreeing to terminate<br />
the agreement are no longer required<br />
to repay any funds, even if they do dispose<br />
of assets or shutdown which<br />
complies with their request.<br />
Clubroot control policy approved<br />
In January, it was confirmed that<br />
clubroot was found in Kneehill County,<br />
prompting measures to combat this<br />
issue. The Agriculture Service Board<br />
(ASB) recommended a policy to align<br />
with these preventative<br />
actions<br />
which was<br />
accepted by<br />
council.<br />
As Clubroot<br />
spreads through<br />
soil movement,<br />
and Kneehill<br />
County offers several<br />
pieces of<br />
equipment that<br />
disturb soil, the<br />
ASB has made<br />
wording amendments<br />
to the<br />
policy to reflect<br />
potential liability.<br />
The board met<br />
on March 4, <strong><strong>20</strong>19</strong><br />
to review and recommend<br />
amendments to<br />

Edwin Vern Miller<br />
1942 ~ <strong><strong>20</strong>19</strong><br />
It is with deep sadness that the<br />
family of Edwin Miller announces his<br />
passing on Mar. 11, <strong><strong>20</strong>19</strong> at the age of 76.<br />
Edwin passed away from a long health<br />
battle in the Red Deer Regional<br />
Hospital.<br />
Edwin was born in Prelate, Sk. to<br />
Peter and Margaret Miller on<br />
June 9, 1942.<br />
Edwin had four siblings:<br />
Tony (deceased), Raymond,<br />
Donald (Gail) and Rose.<br />
Edwin grew up on the family<br />
farm and went to school in Fox<br />
Valley, Sk.<br />
He married Iris Hunter in<br />
1964 and together they had five<br />
children: Sheila (Tim), Stuart<br />
(Kathy), Sharon, Sandra<br />
Miller<br />
(Kevin) and Sheldon.<br />
Soon his family grew with<br />
seven grandchildren: David, Amber,<br />
Carrie, Ryan, Sarah, Mathew, and<br />
Kali; and six great-grandchildren:<br />
Kaden, Henery, Everet, Greyson,<br />
Violet, and Sophia.<br />
After the<br />
passing of his<br />
wife Iris in 1992,<br />
Dad met and married<br />
Charlotte<br />
Scheur in 1995.<br />
To this family<br />
union, Edwin<br />
became a stepson<br />
to Charlotte’s<br />
mom Heather;<br />
step-father to<br />
Sharon (Steve),<br />
Stefan and<br />
Vincent; stepgrandfather<br />
to Natalie, Isabel and<br />
Lacey.<br />
Edwin worked at various places over<br />
the years but he loved being a farm<br />
hand and finally a grader operator,<br />
which he took great pride in.<br />
Edwin enjoyed baseball, snowmobiling<br />
and camping at Cypress Hills.<br />
We are going to miss him dearly.<br />
A funeral service will be<br />
held on Sat. March 23, <strong><strong>20</strong>19</strong>,<br />

Salute to Agriculture / Farm Safety<br />
Alberta Farm Days encourages producer education<br />
Terri Huxley<br />
<strong>ECA</strong> <strong>Review</strong><br />
Farmers are encouraged to participate<br />
in this summer’s ag-tourism<br />
showcase to share their passion for the<br />
industry.<br />
One of the many benefits that come<br />
from this interactive experience is an<br />
increase in sales as well as an opportunity<br />
to educate the public on where<br />
and how their food is produced in<br />
Canada.<br />
Now entering<br />
its seventh year,<br />
Alberta Open<br />
Farm Days features<br />
open houses,<br />
culinary events<br />
and tours.<br />
Farm sales in<br />
<strong>20</strong>18 reached<br />
almost $190,000<br />
over the two days,<br />
up 30 per cent<br />
from the year<br />
before.<br />
For Lazy Bee<br />
Farms in Irma,<br />
Ab., the business echoed that success<br />
in sales in part with the provincial<br />
event.<br />
The Honey Bee Farm became operational<br />
in <strong>20</strong>04 by brothers Bevan, Kent<br />
and Trevor Ford after they helped<br />
their uncle start his own bee farm<br />
which sparked their interest.<br />
It acted as a way to diversify the<br />
farm from beef cattle and grain.<br />
In <strong>20</strong>12, their excess product was put<br />
to good use as each of the brother’s<br />
wives began Simply Bee, a branch of<br />
the company that specializes in natural<br />
ingredient products and beeswax<br />
production.<br />
Jennifer, Tanya, and Meeghan Ford<br />
started this venture by making<br />
beeswax candles and lip balm which<br />
has since expanded into other products<br />
like soap and body products.<br />
“It’s great because the wax is something<br />
they don’t use obviously but I<br />
mean they can sell it but we thought<br />
we could incorporate that and make<br />
something from it too,” said Jennifer<br />
Ford.<br />
Approximately four years ago, the<br />
Ford brothers built a new shop for<br />
their operation, which the ladies<br />
requested a space for their portion of<br />
the business.<br />
“Prior to that we were making soap<br />
in my sister-in-law’s house and<br />
beeswax candles in my house so we<br />
had a small area in there where we<br />
make our products and then we have a<br />
small storefront in there too,” said<br />
Jennifer. “We have people who call us<br />
by appointment to come and look. For<br />
Open Farm Days, for instance, we<br />
have that storefront there so people<br />
can buy products when they are visiting<br />
the farm.”<br />
The farm got involved in Open Farm<br />
Days after a neighbouring farm<br />
approached them to also apply so that<br />
more people would visit the area.<br />
“We actually had great success that<br />
year. I think for the last three years<br />
that we have done it we have had like<br />
<strong>20</strong>0 to 250 people come out which I<br />
think is a really good number in our<br />
area.”<br />
Bevan Ford explains the extractor to attendees during Alberta<br />
Open Farm Days held last year. Photo courtesy of Tanya Ford<br />
Advertising both online and locally<br />
were the key to gaining traction.<br />
“We found it’s a good way for exposure<br />
for us but we also find that it’s a<br />
good way for us to give back to our<br />
community too. We do have locals<br />
come but every year we seem to have<br />
people come from farther away too<br />
which is nice,” said Jennifer.<br />
Throughout the day, employees give<br />
tours of the honey making facility<br />
including the extractor, storage areas,<br />
and hot room.<br />
Visitors can experience a presentation<br />
led by Kent<br />
who gives insight<br />
on bees and what<br />
happens in the<br />
yard from maintaining<br />
the hives<br />
to gathering the<br />
honey as well.<br />
“I think they<br />
take a lot away,<br />
Kent’s presentation<br />
especially,”<br />
Jennifer continued.<br />
“A lot of<br />
people may not<br />
want to visit a bee<br />
yard for the<br />
obvious reason<br />
they might get<br />
stung but the<br />
video footage puts<br />
you right there<br />
You take care of your cattle and<br />
your crops, but what about yourself?<br />

Salute to our Ag Industry<br />
and shows you the process. He knows a<br />
lot not only the process but the life<br />
cycle of a bee and what they do so I<br />
think that they learn a lot through<br />
that presentation.”<br />

When I’m Gone<br />
When I come to the end of my journey<br />
And I travel my last weary mile<br />
Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned<br />
And remember only the smile<br />
Forget unkind words I have spoken<br />
Remember some good I have done<br />
Forget that I ever had heartache<br />
And remember I’ve had loads of fun<br />
Forget that I’ve stumbled and blundered<br />
And sometimes fell by the way<br />
Remember I have fought some hard battles<br />
And won, ere the close of the day<br />
Then forget to grieve for my going<br />
I would not have you sad for a day<br />
But in summer just gather some flowers<br />
And remember the place where I lay<br />
And come in the shade of evening<br />
When the sun paints the sky in the west<br />
Stand for a few moments beside me<br />
And remember only my best<br />
Missing you<br />

“This is sort of an ongoing thing. It’s<br />
not abnormal,” said Chief<br />
Administrative Officer (CAO) Michael<br />
Simpson.<br />
School Playground Project<br />
Friends of the Coronation School<br />
Playground Project approached<br />
council in December <strong>20</strong>18 looking for<br />
financial support of $7,500 which<br />
would be funded out of the operating<br />
budget.<br />
The county provided a letter of<br />
support for the project at the time so<br />
they could look at the project closer<br />
during budget season to determine if<br />
they want to provide financial aid.<br />
Coronation School’s playground<br />
was recently removed due to infrastructure<br />
that was no longer accepted<br />
by regulation standards.<br />
“The school board just kind of<br />
came in one day and nobody even<br />
knew and took pretty much everything,<br />
even the swingset, so the kids<br />
really have nothing. I don’t think the<br />
principal even knew they were<br />
coming,” said Coun. Diane Elliott.<br />
She mentioned how the group has<br />
been constantly fundraising but that<br />
“they are struggling.”<br />
So far they have obtained $35,000 but<br />
have a steep climb to reach their goal<br />
of $185,000.<br />
In the past, council has provided pea<br />
gravel as well as some money to the<br />
Brownfield playground, about four<br />
years ago.<br />
The state of the Castor School playground<br />
was also brought up,<br />
prompting council to think more thoroughly<br />
about<br />
where funding<br />
should be going.<br />
Council agreed<br />
to give both<br />
Coronation and<br />
Castor’s Friends<br />
of Gus Wetter<br />
Society $5,000<br />
each for their individual<br />
projects.<br />
Divvied up<br />
The County of<br />
Paintearth had an<br />
operating surplus<br />
as of Dec. 31, <strong>20</strong>18<br />
of $2,557,924 that<br />
needed to be distributed<br />
to<br />
restricted<br />
surplus.<br />
The county had<br />
budgeted for<br />
$1,131,905 to be<br />
transferred to<br />
restricted surplus<br />
for future capital<br />
requirements but<br />
the excess has<br />
arisen from a<br />
quiet winter<br />
which decreased<br />
the need for snow<br />
removal, less<br />
gravel required<br />
for road gravelling,<br />
a decrease<br />
in the amount of<br />
contracted<br />
mulching services,<br />
and a<br />
decrease in the<br />
amount of equipment<br />
repairs<br />
required from <strong>20</strong>17.<br />
Council commended administration<br />
on their hard work surrounding<br />
the surplus.<br />
Administration did have some<br />
suggestions as to where the surge in<br />
funds should go including their<br />
expected capital asset projects.<br />
They recommended $1 million be<br />
put into restricted surplus road development,<br />
$400,000 in public works<br />
buildings, $1 million in gravel land,<br />
$100,000 in subdivision development,<br />
$10,000 in bylaw vehicles, $10,000 in<br />
Brownfield Water project, and the<br />
remaining $37,924 into restricted surplus<br />
public works vehicles.<br />
With expected bridge replacements,<br />
it was also recommended that council<br />
transfers $1 million from restricted<br />
surplus operating contingency to<br />
restricted surplus road development as<br />
a separate motion.<br />
Council asked about the Brownfield<br />
Water project to which administration<br />
felt building reserve funding was necessary<br />
as the water and sewer<br />
infrastructure becomes more and<br />
more of an issue.<br />
“That’s just looking forward to the<br />
future,” said Lana Roth, director of<br />
corporate services.<br />
CAO Simpson added, “They [sewer<br />
system pipes] were put in some time<br />
ago. We know at some point we will<br />
have to replace them so we are just<br />
building reserves slowly over time to<br />
get ready for it.”<br />
The recommendations were<br />
accepted by council.<br />

Plugging into People Power<br />
The alarm goes off, your feet hit<br />
the floor, and you flip the bathroom<br />
switch. You walk through the<br />
hallway into the kitchen, and turn<br />
on the lights. After filling the coffee<br />
pot or kettle, you plug it in, push<br />
start, and a few minutes later you<br />
have your morning brew. You grab<br />
the remote and turn on the morning<br />
news, while you unplug your<br />
phone charger. How many times a<br />
day do you use electricity? In the<br />
first few minutes of your day you<br />
flip on, plug in, turn on, and unplug<br />
from electricity without giving it a second thought. Apart<br />
from the click of a switch, the voice of an announcer on<br />
TV, or the noise of the appliances– electricity just quietly<br />
does its job.<br />
These days electricity travels quietly from pole to pole<br />
through lines strung across rural Alberta. Thirty-two Rural<br />
Electrification Associations (REA) distribute electricity<br />
across hundreds of kilometres of line to over 41,000<br />
members. Those REAs are part of a larger cooperative<br />
movement in Canada dating back to the 1840s that now<br />
includes over 9,000 co-ops in nearly every business sector<br />
imaginable.<br />
When a co-op of any kind forms, it is exciting and people<br />
are involved. But, over time, it all becomes routine, similar<br />
to flipping on the light switch. There are the annual meetings<br />
with dry financials and bylaws to vote on. Years pass,<br />
the excitement wanes, and people go back to their busy<br />
lives. Alberta REAs have gone through the same ups<br />
and downs, but the REA distribution system has quietly<br />
hummed along providing reliable and cost effective power<br />
to rural residents.<br />
Amidst that quiet reliability we noticed a worrisome trend.<br />
Some REA members don’t know they are members. Others<br />
may be aware they are members, but they have no<br />
idea what the value is apart from being able to turn on<br />
lights and appliances at will.<br />
We want to reverse that trend and you can help.<br />
Check your power bill and see if your power is distributed<br />
by an REA. If it is, call your REA to validate your member<br />
information. Add the next Annual General Meeting to your<br />
calendar and plan to attend. Contact the director who is<br />
elected to represent your area. Get involved with keeping<br />
a locally-owned business viable in your community.<br />
Active members are the people power<br />
that keeps an REA going strong.<br />
REA co-ops are owned by their members and governed<br />
by a Board of Directors elected from the membership.<br />
They rely heavily on member involvement. So we are taking<br />
to the newspaper, the radio, and social media to help<br />
spread the word. REAs are powerful co-ops with a history<br />
of energizing their members.<br />
Your REA wants you to get plugged in to<br />
the power of your REA co-op.<br />

Salute to Agriculture / Farm Safety<br />
Clubroot becoming serious issue<br />
Cont’d from Pg 10<br />
This policy recognizes<br />
that Clubroot is a serious<br />
pest problem and supports<br />
the principle to<br />
control the spread of<br />
Clubroot which has been<br />
declared a pest under the<br />
Act.<br />
Wimborne road<br />
closure<br />
Accurate Accounting<br />
placed a market<br />
appraisal of $2,500 for a<br />
portion of road closed off<br />
in Wimborne, Ab.<br />
Council accepted this<br />
price, and will transfer<br />
the funds to the road<br />
reserve account as they<br />
will sell the portion that<br />
is closed.<br />
Robert and Nancy Ells<br />
originally requested a<br />
road closure for an undeveloped<br />
road allowance<br />
(Crescent Road) adjacent<br />
to their lot in Wimborne.<br />
The road closure was<br />
requested in order to<br />
better define their lot<br />
and to ensure there is no<br />
encroachment.<br />
Council determined at<br />
the time to close the<br />
entire road and to have it<br />
consolidated into the<br />
adjacent county-owned<br />
park with the exception<br />
of the lands requested by<br />
the Ells.<br />
Road closures are governed<br />
by the Municipal<br />
Government Act and<br />
Section 22 states that a<br />
road must be closed by<br />
bylaw.<br />
Meows<br />
to Moos,<br />
Barks to Bleats,<br />
Big or small,<br />
We look after<br />
‘em all.<br />
- Dr. Jeff & Staff<br />
Third and final<br />
reading of the bylaw followed<br />
the public hearing<br />
and ministerial approval<br />
on Aug. 15, <strong>20</strong>17.<br />
The Ells were then<br />
required to apply for a<br />
subdivision in order to<br />
obtain the subject lands.<br />
This subdivision was<br />
approved by the<br />
Municipal Planning<br />
Commission on Sept. 27,<br />
<strong>20</strong>18.<br />
An appraisal of the<br />
market value of the land<br />
has been provided by<br />
Accurate Assessment as<br />
$2,500 for the additional<br />
302.346 m2.<br />
These additional lands<br />
will be consolidated into<br />
the existing lot through<br />
the subdivision process.<br />
Non-energy and<br />
energy related<br />
developments<br />
requirements<br />
In recent years,<br />
Kneehill County has<br />
seen an increase of applicants<br />
wanting to develop<br />
on lands where access<br />
would be required on an<br />
undeveloped road<br />
allowance.<br />
Previous policies<br />
allowed for cost-sharing<br />
options, which were<br />
shown to be problematic<br />
and lacked engineering<br />
requirements.<br />
Two policies now<br />
outline the requirements<br />
for non-energy and<br />
energy related developments<br />
on an undeveloped<br />
road allowance which<br />
council readily accepted<br />
the changes.<br />
The policies state<br />
that before council<br />
approves a development<br />
to subdivide or develop a<br />
parcel of land, the applicant<br />
or developer must<br />
get an Engineering<br />
<strong>Review</strong> Assessment from<br />
the current municipal<br />
engineer with costs<br />
which are laid out in the<br />
County’s Master Rates<br />
Bylaw.<br />
The developer or applicant<br />
must enter a road<br />
development agreement<br />
and may be required to<br />
engage the services of a<br />
professional engineer to<br />
undertake the subject<br />
project.<br />
The Road Development<br />
Agreement will outline<br />
the developer/contractor’s<br />
responsibility and<br />
may be attached to title<br />
by caveat.<br />
Based on the assessment<br />
and consultation<br />
with the CAO, the county<br />
may require the applicant<br />
to provide a road<br />
engineering report on<br />
top of the other<br />
agreement.<br />
In it, the report must<br />
contain full costs estimates<br />
for construction,<br />
possibly engineering/<br />
geophysical/geotechnical<br />
reports, survey<br />
reports, design plans and<br />
road profiles, identification<br />
of gas line crossings<br />
– high and low pressure,<br />
We Salute<br />
Agriculture &<br />

<strong>ECA</strong> REVIEW HANNA/CORONATION/STETTLER, AB MARCH 21'19 19<br />
Know our options<br />
Cont’d from Pg 6<br />
Is this too harsh? It would be if there<br />
wasn’t already a long history of failed<br />
‘reform’ movements.<br />
Also, to change the Canadian constitution<br />
still requires the agreement of<br />
most, if not all, of the provinces of<br />
Canada.<br />
Remember ‘Meech Lake’, and that’s<br />
if the other provinces even want to go<br />
through that again.<br />
We don’t even want to go through<br />
that distinct non-sense again.<br />
So what are Albertans to do?<br />
Are we going to continue to pay<br />
more than our fair share, through<br />
equalization and transfer payments,<br />
while waiting for federal government<br />
permission to maintain our standard<br />
of living?<br />
When our Alberta premier, whoever<br />
it is, negotiates with Canada, are they<br />
‘Canadian’ first or ‘Albertan’ first?<br />
And if our premier is Canadian first,<br />
which every Alberta premier,<br />
including Lougheed, Klein, and<br />
Notley, has been then is not that ‘negotiation’<br />
merely a ‘capitulation’<br />
(surrender)?<br />
Of course it is because Canada<br />
knows that we Albertans are not considering<br />
any other options. And until<br />
we Albertans do so, Canada will have<br />
its way with us.<br />
We have options when we buy a<br />
Salute to Agriculture<br />
/ Farm Safety<br />
house or look for a job.<br />
Certainly you look at more than one<br />
house before you buy.<br />
Any good negotiator will tell you<br />
that there is no negotiation unless<br />
each party has options, otherwise<br />
there is nothing to negotiate. There is<br />
only a surrender.<br />
You might loudly protest but you<br />
will still comply because you ‘know of<br />
no other options’. And that is just what<br />
every Alberta premier has done.<br />
So the first step in any negotiation is<br />
to know our options.<br />
Here are eight options for Albertans<br />
to ponder:<br />
1.) Stay within Canada.<br />
2.) Form a new nation with British<br />
Columbia.<br />
3.) Join the United States of<br />
America.<br />
4.) Form a new nation with<br />
Saskatchewan.<br />
5.) Form a new nation with British<br />
Columbia and Saskatchewan.<br />
6.) Form a new nation British<br />
Columbia, Saskatchewan and<br />
Manitoba.<br />
7.) Open negotiations simultaneously<br />
with all parties.<br />
8.) Form an independent Albertan<br />
nation.<br />

Smear campaign unjustified<br />
Cont’d from Pg 6<br />
As a result, David was so stressed<br />
from the legal wrangling that he<br />
couldn’t sleep and died at age 62 of a<br />
heart attack.<br />
The Act gave the Hansen’s no constitutional<br />
or legal right to private<br />
property.<br />
The UCP is correctly using this situation<br />
as an example of an egregious<br />
case of trampling on private property<br />
rights.<br />
The Hanson’s have been legally<br />
abused in court by successive provincial<br />
governments for 35 years and it<br />
still isn’t settled.<br />
The UCP haven’t made the link that<br />
it is the Special Areas Act that is and<br />
was the cause of the Hansen’s situation<br />
and other similar situations in the<br />
Special Areas.<br />
Our MLA, Rick Strankman, has<br />
been accused of trying to destroy the<br />
Special Areas.<br />
What he has been trying to do is<br />
have changes made that would give<br />
the residents of the area property<br />
rights.<br />
Special Areas No. 1 was the area<br />
around Medicine Hat, so what was<br />
part of that Special Area is now rural<br />
municipal districts<br />
and they have property<br />
rights with<br />
elected councils to<br />
administer their<br />
own affairs.<br />
The remaining<br />
Special Areas has<br />
matured and developed<br />
to the point<br />
now that they could<br />
be converted into a<br />
rural municipal district<br />
similar to the<br />
County of<br />
Paintearth where I live.<br />
The broad smear campaign that is<br />
going on in the Drumheller-Stettler<br />
constituency is unjustified when all<br />
the MLA has been trying to do is<br />
secure the same property rights for<br />
those residents that the rest of us in<br />
rural Alberta enjoy.<br />

Salute to Agriculture<br />
/ Farm Safety<br />
Felt a sense of community<br />
Cont’d from Pg 1<br />
The highest number<br />
of immigrants ever<br />
recorded was in 1913,<br />
when more than<br />
400,000 immigrants<br />
arrived in the country.<br />
Because of these hurdles,<br />
the St. Michael’s<br />
Manfred (Hungarian)<br />
Society felt the plaque<br />
was a great way to<br />
show their pride for<br />
their country and roots<br />
that have taken place<br />
in the west.<br />
It started as a conversation<br />
between Barry<br />
Stotts, an organizer of<br />
the event, and Doug<br />
Orom after they had<br />
finished conducting<br />
odd jobs around the<br />
cemetery when a<br />
person was spotted<br />
viewing some of the<br />
headstones.<br />
It turned out to be<br />
Julianna Stein from<br />
the Manfred Society.<br />
The society had been<br />
in contact with the<br />
Embassy of Hungary<br />
and the Canadian-<br />
Hungarian Heritage<br />
Council to erect<br />
plaques in various<br />
places across Canada<br />
to honour Hungarian<br />
settlers of the past.<br />
Stein visited four<br />
times over the course<br />
of three years to understand<br />
the layout and<br />
later create the plaque<br />
with her husband.<br />
The announcement<br />
was made in January,<br />
setting the date for the<br />
ceremony. This information<br />
was quickly<br />
spread online,<br />
increasing excitement<br />
and attendance.<br />
“We had responses<br />
from some people like<br />
the Mraz’s who donated<br />
their land. A lot of the<br />
cousins – they all sort<br />
of came [like the]<br />
Kerik’s, Orom’s,<br />
Filinger’s, Mraz’s… so<br />
it just kept on going,”<br />
said Stotts.<br />
Stotts displayed<br />
heartfelt tears of joy by<br />
the sight of how many<br />
had arrived for the special<br />
occasion.<br />
“I’m just overwhelmed.<br />
We expected<br />
<strong>20</strong>. It just kept on going<br />
and I think the thing<br />
that got me – why I am<br />
overwhelmed is that<br />
there are so many<br />
cousins. It’s become a<br />
family reunion. That’s<br />
an interesting thing to<br />
know. They all share<br />
and meet other people<br />
so it is good,” said<br />
Stotts.<br />
“We expected <strong>20</strong> and<br />
we had 92 relatives that<br />
said that they were<br />
coming and I think<br />
that there was probably<br />
100 coming that were<br />
here. So it was really<br />
something meant to<br />
honour the Hungarian<br />
settlers and the people<br />
who have settled this<br />
land. They worked<br />
hard for it.”<br />
The plaque, which is<br />
now installed on the<br />
obelisk at the entrance<br />
of the cemetery, says:<br />
‘We are honoured to<br />
pay tribute to the first<br />
Hungarian settlers<br />
who arrived in this<br />
country in 1894 and<br />
those who followed in<br />
later years. Their<br />
legacy has been a great<br />
contribution to the success<br />
of Alberta and<br />
Canada.’<br />
First of the<br />
Hungarian settlers<br />
came to the area primarily<br />
from the<br />
County of Tolna,<br />
Dunafoldvar vicinity,<br />
and Fejer County.<br />
The Meister family<br />
first arrived in 1894 followed<br />
by the Mraz<br />
family in 1895. Later,<br />
the Öröm, Dubics<br />
(Dubitz), Kerék (Kerik),<br />
Pulai (Pullay) Gallai,<br />
Tóth, Pék, Pintér,<br />
Fillinger, Földi, Rózsa,<br />
Fazekas and Csire<br />
(Cire) families arrived,<br />
all of which had an<br />
average of four to six<br />
children.<br />
For many years, the<br />
idea of a church dedicated<br />
to their religion<br />
was not realistic so,<br />
instead, the families<br />
would gather at the<br />
Kerik’s where Father<br />
Beillevaire, the<br />
Catholic pastor of the<br />
region gave service and<br />
counselling<br />
occasionally.<br />
In 1909, Janos (John)<br />
Mraz Jr. offered up five<br />
acres of his own land to<br />
aid in the construction<br />
of a church and<br />
cemetery.<br />
The next year the St.<br />
Michael’s Catholic<br />
Church and cemetery<br />
were created with the<br />
help of many local families<br />
including four<br />
non-Hungarian<br />
Catholic families by<br />
donation and other<br />
means.<br />
It became the first<br />
Catholic church of the<br />
region and the only<br />
Hungarian chapel<br />
A number of people who attended the plaque dedication<br />
ceremony also visited the 65-year-old church at the top of<br />
the hill near the cemetery as it was opened for the special<br />
occasion. The St. Michael’s Manfred Society is planning on<br />
demolishing the structure sometime this year.<br />

The original St. Michael’s Roman-<br />
Catholic Church circa 1910.<br />
<strong>ECA</strong> <strong>Review</strong>/Submitted<br />
within Alberta at the<br />
time.<br />
This centre became<br />
the pinnacle for<br />
community.<br />
“I think that because<br />
of the strong work ethic<br />
that they brought here,<br />
it seems like all of the<br />
families work together<br />
and there was a lot of<br />
visiting,” said Stotts.<br />
“There was a lot of<br />
community functions<br />
when the church was<br />
going and they would<br />
travel a long distance<br />
just to get there. They<br />
felt a real sense of community<br />
and are<br />
wanting to keep their<br />
heritage alive in the<br />
community.”<br />
Istvan Dubics<br />
(Stephen Dubitz) and<br />
his wife offered a two<br />
metre high stone crucifix<br />
that stood in front<br />
of the original church.<br />
It was later moved to<br />
the cemetery to continue<br />
showing the<br />
proud heritage of the<br />
Bashaw area.<br />
In 1935, the steeple<br />
was severely damaged<br />
after a major thunderstorm<br />
so a wooden<br />
cross took its place<br />
until the church underwent<br />
renovations and<br />
reconstruction.<br />
The new church was<br />
built over the course of<br />
1955 and 1956 after the<br />
original building<br />
started showing signs<br />
of wear. The major<br />
overhaul on the<br />
building included the<br />
installation of a<br />
modern heating system<br />
and electrical wiring.<br />
Stotts did mention<br />
this church will soon<br />
be demolished as many<br />
years of wear have<br />
taken a toll on the<br />
building, especially the<br />
foundation.<br />
Despite this, the<br />
society wants to continue<br />
beautification of<br />
the cemetery itself by<br />
re-fencing, adding<br />
trees, and adding adequate<br />
parking among<br />
other projects.<br />
Due to the larger<br />
church situated in<br />
Bashaw, the rural<br />
church became obsolete.<br />
In 1975, it was<br />
announced by the<br />
Catholic diocese it will<br />
officially close because<br />
of the lack of parishioners<br />
who were taking<br />
advantage of the larger<br />
centre for prayer.<br />
The doors of the<br />
facility stayed open<br />
until the mid-80s for<br />
anyone who wished to<br />
have a moment but<br />
because of the disappearance<br />
of several<br />
valuable relics and religious<br />
items, a padlock<br />
was added to the main<br />
doors, keeping it shut.<br />
As for the Hungarian<br />
Society, its history<br />
begins in 1951.<br />
The Manfred club as<br />
it was called was<br />
formed to mainly take<br />
care of the ageing<br />
infrastructure but<br />
after the closure of the<br />
chapel, it was reorganized<br />
in 1994 as the St.<br />
Michael’s Manfred<br />
(Hungarian) that<br />
focuses on the maintenance<br />
of the cemetery.<br />
