Delia School Enhancement Society 

reaches $1.2 million goal in eight months 

Terri Huxley 

ECA Review 

In eight short months the Delia 

School Enhancement Society (DSES) 

has successfully reached their fundraising 

goal of $1.2 million. 

Their efforts are to be used to help 

with federal and provincial funding 

towards a new Kindergarten to Grade 

12 School in the village. 

A variety of fun and unique fundraising 

opportunities were pursued 

under the Make Your Mark Campaign 

especially the Boots and Bowties Gala 

which raised $68,000 and the ‘Ag for Ed’ 

charity steer named Sir Loin. 

“The Gala was a huge success at 

$9,000. It was a great night for everyone 

who attended, with amazing food from 

Bev and Don Hall and incredible entertainment 

from Elton Lammie and his 

band, and the Suit Jacket Society. We 

raised over $68,000 in a single night – a 

crazy, awesome number. That number 

was only possible because of our generous 

donors, community support and 

Delia School students, faculty and community members gathered in the Delia School Gymnasium on Thurs, May 2. Confetti and balloons were 

released in celebration of the $1.2 million raised by the Make Your Mark campaign organized by the Delia School Enhancement Society (DSES). The 

funding will be used towards the new Delia School.

incredibly dedicated volunteers. 

We are so grateful and lucky to 

have the community we do,” said 

Robyn Thompson-Lake, DSES 

Social Media Lead. 

On Thurs. May 2, students, 

teachers, parents, and DSES 

board members gathered in the 

school gymnasium to celebrate 

the incredible milestone, solidifying 

their dream by turning it 

into reality. 

“The Make Your Mark campaign 

was a huge success 

– success only possible because of 

the incredible generosity shown 

by individuals, families, businesses, 

and communities. We 

raised over $1.2 million in under 

eight months – an amazing 

number that shows how important 

this project is to so many 

people. DSES is so excited to 

share this accomplishment with 

the many, many people who contributed,” 

said Amber Marshall, 

DSES President. 

Now that the society has 

reached their fundraising target 

for the Make Your Mark campaign, 

the group is shifting focus 

towards raising funds to ensure 

the community spaces and new 

school facility are equipped and 

ready to welcome the community 

in 2020. 

Some of the needs that have 

been identified include bleachers 

and infrastructure for the fieldhouse, 

greenspaces and 

community garden areas, community 

library supplies and 

enhancements, and art programming 

and supplies.

Court rules provinces and 

feds must work together 

Brenda Schimke 


With a split decision by 

Saskatchewan’s Court of Appeal 

ruling the federal government’s 

carbon pricing scheme was within its 

constitutional powers, the only true 

winners are lawyers. They are and 

will continue to rake in multi-millions 

of taxpayer dollars as Ontario, New 

Brunswick, Alberta, Manitoba and 

British Columbia fight the federal government, 

or one another, over federal/ 

provincial jurisdiction. 

Lawsuits between domestic governments 

are simply propaganda tools 

used by competing ideologies to affirm 

a sense of injustice and anger between 

tribes. Defeats in the court give the 

losing tribe more ammunition to bad 

mouth our judiciary, an important 

democratic pillar, and to promote more 

anger and resentment amongst 

Canadians. When feelings rule, facts 

and reason disappear. 

When right-wing parties were conservative 

(market economy with 

government oversight to protect consumers 

and vulnerable populations) 

and before they became neo-liberal 

(low taxes, no regulations, small government), 

conservative politicians 

believed in the need for carbon emission 

reductions. In fact, both the 

carbon tax and the cap-and-trade 

system were Conservative brain 

child’s—both put a price on pollution 

to change behavior and encourage 

investment in alternate energy sources 

using market forces. 

Today, right-wing, neo-liberal parties 

change their spin on climate 

change depending on the audience. 

They know the environment doesn’t 

win elections, yet polls consistently 

find the majority of Canadians are concerned 

about climate change. That’s 

why Prime Minister-hopeful Andrew 

Scheer will float his left-wing carbon 

reduction plan of subsidies and incentives 

for individuals, and regulations 

and fines on industry for the election 

season. Once elected his plan will 

become neo-liberal-friendly by simply 

reducing targets, gutting oversight 

agencies and allowing industry to 

self-monitor. 

EDITORIAL 

MAIL BAG 

OPINION 

The majority of Justices based their 

decision on two points of law. First, the 

carbon tax was not a tax because it did 

not raise revenue for the federal government. 

Under the federal scheme, 

100 per cent of the carbon tax revenue 

is returned back to individuals and 

businesses in the provinces where they 

were collected. Rather than a tax, it is 

a regulatory fee on emissions for the 

purpose of changing behaviour. 

The second finding was that climate 

change is an area of shared jurisdiction 

between Ottawa and the provinces 

and they must work together. The 

majority of Justices found that the federal 

plan allows for significant 

provincial action on carbon emissions 

and respects Canada’s Constitution. Of 

course, this ruling only makes sense to 

those who are not climate deniers and 

those who believe pollution and CO2 

can cross politicial borders. 

The timing is awful, but eventually 

the TransMountain pipeline will 

receive the go ahead. That is if the 

majority of Justices in our provincial 

and federal Supreme Courts continue 

to rule that the federal government has 

constitutional powers over crossborder 

issues, including pipelines and 

carbon emissions. 

Today there are Premiers such as 

Doug Ford of Ontario, Mike Harcourt 

of B.C. and now Jason Kenney who 

routinely launch or trigger lawsuits 

instead of governing. Unfortunately 

the results are dismal including 

unnecessary delays on important economic 

projects (courts move very 

slowly) and multi-millions of tax dollars 

wasted on lawyer fees. But the 

most dangerous precedence is these 

new age politicians are capitulating 

their constitutional governance 

powers to an unelected judiciary. 

Interestingly, when the vast majority 

of political leaders were lawyers, they 

seldom ceded their elected power to the 

judiciary branch of government. 

Effective leadership is more than 

riling up an angry crowd and getting 

them out to vote. The hard work of 

leadership in a democracy is disagreement, 

negotiation, collaboration, 

deliberation, compromise, respect and 

making decisions that benefit more 

than just one tribe. 

Accept the herd mentality 

Dear Editor, 

Re: “Fact or opinion”; by Brenda 

Schimke; 4/18/19. 

Indeed, independent thinking is discouraged. 

We’re “encouraged” to 

behave like sheep. We’re to accept the 

opinions of others without bothering to 

check the facts. 

Why? Because most folks are afraid 

to express a “different” point of view 

for fear of possibly losing their jobs, 

their businesses, or their friends/ 

associates. 

The fear of being ostracized also 

plays a very big part in the minds of 

many people, especially in rural communities 

where everyone knows 

everyone. 

Expressing a “different” point of 

view may be considered heresy. We’re 

“encouraged” to conform, to be the 

same like everyone else. We’re encouraged 

to think alike, to talk alike, and to 

even vote alike. 

“Don’t be different”! Follow the 

crowd; accept the herd mentality.

PRAIRIEVIEW 

Carbon tax - split decision 

by Herman Schwenk 

The Saskatchewan Court of Appeal 

came down with a decision on Fri. May 

3 on Saskatchewan’s challenge to the 

Federal Government imposing a 

carbon tax on the residents of 

Saskatchewan. 

In a split three to two decision, they 

ruled in favour of the Federal 

government. 

From what I have learned, the decision 

was more about whether the 

government had the constitutional 

right to impose the tax on a province 

rather than if there was merit in the 

reason for the tax in the first place. 

The written decision by the two dissenting 

judges was more detailed than 

was the decision of the other three 

judges. 

The dissenting decision will provide 

justification for appeal, so this is not a 

final decision on the issue by a long 

ways. 

As Premier Scott Moe said, the decision 

will be appealed to the Supreme 

Court. 

The province of Ontario has also 

taken the Federal Government to 

court on the matter. It will be interesting 

to see what the decision of that 

court will be. 

This old dinosaur is not very good at 

finding info on Google. 

I was told that the mean temperature 

on Mars parallels the 

temperature on the Earth exactly. 

I was digging around on Google to 

find a confirmation of this and while I 

did not find a clear yes or no, what I did 

find pretty much confirms that it does. 

Australian physical chemist, Dr. 

Peter Carson from the University of 

Adelaide showed that careful comparison 

of the different concentrations of 

atmospheric carbon dioxide (C02) on 

Earth, Venus and Mars determines 

that the supposed greenhouse gas 

effect has no relation to the amount of 

atmospheric C02. 

The atmosphere on Venus and Mars 

is about 95 per cent C02 but on Mars 

the atmosphere is very thin. 

Dr. Carson sets out and links in a 

detailed analysis, a compelling debunk 

of the claims that adding more C02 into 

the atmosphere will alter the temperature 

of a planet’s surface. 

In effect, Carson shows that the 

theory of anthropogenic global 

warming is false. 

I also did some research on Dr. Tim 

Ball. 

He is a renowned environmental 

consultant and former professor of climatology 

at the University of 

Winnipeg. 

Dr. Ball has written extensively on 

the subject of climate change. 

He says almost everything that we 

hear on radio and television is propaganda 

and fake news. 

In February of 2019 he did an update 

on an earlier effort to counter the propaganda 

war that is going on to 

promote the falsehoods about the environment 

and climate. 

I personally have met and spoken 

with Dr. Ball twice and I have heard 

him interviewed on radio numerous 

times. 

I have not seen him interviewed on 

TV. 

The mainstream media are going 

along with the deception being promoted 

by the United Nations, 

environmentalists, all the left wing 

politicians and you name it, so they are 

not about to interview someone like 

Dr. Ball. 

I fail to understand why the conservative 

politicians are going along with 

this climate change deception. 

These court cases would be an excellent 

opportunity to bring in the real 

climate experts and prove to everyone 

that climate change is and always has 

been natural. 

So there would be no need to cut 

back on carbon emissions. 

I think a court case would be an 

excellent way for conservatives to set 

themselves apart from the rest of this 

pack. 

There would be key climate information 

that would become public from 

this process and that could not be 

ignored by the press any more than 

the information that came to light 

from the SNC-Lavalin situation. 

It would not matter what the decision 

of the court was, it is the 

testimony of the climate experts 

becoming public in a court case that 

would wake everyone up to the deception 

that has been going on for 

decades.

Council working on growth incentive plan 

Jody Pettigrew 


Council directed administration 

to prepare a policy for the 

Community Growth Incentive 

Plan based on the outline provided 

by the Economic 

Development Committee on 

March 21, 2019. 

Forestburg village administration 

presented a draft of the 


Policy based on the outline 

provided by the Economic 

Development Committee on 

March 21, for review at the regular 

council meeting on May 2. 

The incentive program 

would award current residents 

and business owners who are 

instrumental in bringing new 

residents and/or businesses to 

Forestburg. 

Some of the proposed incentives 

highlighted were, if a 

family of two or more purchases 

an existing home and 

Visitors can take 

part in several tours 

including a tour of 

the last wooden 

tipple in Canada. 

ECA Review/ 

J.Webster 

Saving a national treasure 

Submitted 

On May 1, 2019 Canada’s 

last wooden tipple has a new 

lease on life. 

Instead of thousands of 

tons of coal going through 

the tipple each season, thousands 

of visitors from the 

world over can see, feel and 

engage with authentic 

history. 

The Atlas Coal Mine 

National Historic Site celebrated 

a century of Atlas 

Mines and the completion of 

their five-year, $1 million 

conservation project. 

In 2012, a multi-year, 

multi-phase plan was 

devised to preserve the 

tipple that was built in 1937. 

Without timely attention 

towards stabilization, this 

unique structure would 

have closed to visitors and 

may have been lost forever. 

“Having the last standing 

wooden Tipple in Canada 

preserved for future generations 

is a wonderful 

achievement for the 

Drumheller Valley, said Dr. 

Sarah Newstead, Executive 

Director of the Atlas Coal 

Mine National Historic Site. 

“The Atlas Coal Mine is 

proud to keep the Valley’s 

coal mining heritage alive, 

telling the miners stories to 

thousands of visitors every 

year.” 

A tipple sorted, stored and 

loaded coal, very much like 

a grain elevator. 

Jay Russell, Atlas Coal Mine National Historic Site Curator, addresses 

the crowd on May 1 for their unveiling of the important five year 

project renovations. 

ECA Review/Submitted 

FORESTBURG COUNCIL 

relocates to Forestburg, the 

person who invited them here 

would receive a $500 property 

tax or utility credit. 

If a family of two or more 

builds a new home, the incentive 

would be $1,000 property 

tax or utility credit. 

If a new business opens 

which employs two or more 

employees, a $1,000 property 

tax or utility credit would be 

given. 

A new business being built 

and becoming operational, 

would result in a $2,000 property 

tax or utility credit for the 

person who issued the invitation 

to relocate. 

If an established business 

expands or builds, a tax credit 

is negotiated depending on the 

value of the build and the 

number of additional staff 

hired. 

The policy is also proposing 

that a current resident or business 

is eligible to receive the 


for each separate family and/ 

or business which relocates to 

Forestburg. 

The community growth 

must also occur within six 

months of invitation to visit 

and/or relocate to Forestburg. 

Council recommended that 

administration make additional 

changes to the policy 

and present the amended 

policy at a future Council 

meeting. 

Patio opening 

Council approved the request 

from Manyhorses Saloon to 

close the laneway adjacent to 

their property located at 5004-50 

Avenue from May 1 to Sept. 30 to 

allow the business to utilize this 

space as an outdoor patio. 

A condition to temporarily 

fence the area was put in place 

to ensure that there is a physical 

barrier between patrons 

and the general public. 

After being sorted the different sizes 

of coal were stored in massive storage 

bins ready to be delivered or loaded 

onto the waiting trains. 

Drumheller coal kept millions of 

Canadians warm during the first half 

of the 20th century. 

At one time there were hundreds of 

tipples across Canada. 

Conservation efforts to Canada’s last 

wooden tipple included vital structural 

repairs, replacement of 

compressed timbers, replacement of 

the roof, and creating a public exhibit 

space. 

This project was completed thanks 

to fundraising, private donations and 

project grants as this national historic 

site receives no operational funds from 

any level of government.

Community Standards 

Bylaw to be amended 

Administration recommended 

to council that the 

Community Standards 

Bylaw be amended so that it 

can be enforced without the 

need for a written complaint 

from a resident. 

The purpose of this bylaw 

is to regulate the conduct 

and activities of people on 

privately-owned property 

and adjacent areas to promote 

the safe, enjoyable and 

reasonable use of such property 

for the benefit of all 

citizens of the village. 

Currently residents must 

submit their complaints in 

writing for unsightly properties, 

noise levels, and 

more, before administration 

can take action. 

The matter was 

tabled until a 

later date when 

all council members 

are present. 

Sharing garbage 

bins creates 

concern 

In an attempt to 

reduce operating 

costs, some commercial 

property 

owners have 

resolved the issue 

of paying 

monthly garbage 

fees by sharing 

garbage bins. 

Council discussed 

the 

concern that 

more businesses 

might opt out of 

paying garbage 

fees which might 

create issues in 

the future.

For each property that 

does not pay the monthly 

garbage fee of $35.80, the village 

has to re-allocate the 

cost back to the properties 

that do pay garbage fees. 

Businesses that have bins 

from Flagstaff Waste pay 

landfill fees in the rental of 

that bin when they contract 

it from Flagstaff Waste, but 

do not pay the $429.60 per 

year that Forestburg residents 

pay to the village. 

Municipal garbage fees 

are requisitioned on a per 

capita basis. 

Administration was 

advised by council to revisit 

the bylaw at the 2020 budget

Alix Traffic Bylaw review completed 

Terri Huxley 


The final three parts of the village 

of Alix Traffic Bylaw was read and 

discussed, completing the mulimeeting 

overview of the bylaw. 

Alix Council met on Wed. May 1 

for their regular meeting, bringing 

forward a few last items to the table. 

Although the review is over, residents 

have time to converse with 

council on their thoughts towards the 

various changes brought forward to 

update this particular bylaw. 

The bylaw passed first and second 

reading at the meeting and will be 

brought back at a future date for 

third reading. 

Changes include things like the 

school zone being changed to a dusk 

until dawn playground zone to limit 

confusion as to 

times where 

traffic is allowed 

to speed up and 

slow down near 

the school and 

other designated 

areas. 

Chief 

Administrative 

Officer (CAO) 

Michelle White 

mentioned she 

will be looking 

farther into this 

with the scope set 

on all designated 

areas within the 

village limits to 

see where signs 

would be appropriate 

and what 

limits are acceptable 

to ‘have some 

uniformity there.’ 

Penalties have been tentatively 

changed to reflect more intense 

prices in hopes of limiting infractions 

within the village. 

Any person in contravention to the 

rules can be fined between $50 and 

$1,000 depending on the type of 

offense. 

Council felt that the section of 

‘Parking a vehicle carrying dangerous 

goods on any non-designated 

highway’ was too low at only $100 for 

the first offence. 

They agreed to bump it up to $250 

for the first offense, $500 for the 

second, and $1,000 for the third in the 

name of public safety. 

Lacombe County peace officers 

are the village’s designated officers 

with the ability to fine people with 

tickets or warnings under the village’s 

bylaw. 

Library board report 

Coun. Barb Gilliat shared minutes 

from the recent Alix Public Library 

meeting held in the middle of April. 

Mayor Rob Fehr and Coun. Gilliat 

attended. 

The mayor asked to speak to a concern 

that had been raised by a number 

of people regarding how the library 

services are being delivered. 

He suggested that if no evaluations 

are being done that they should be 

considered by the board. 

Dwight Nagel, vice-chair, was 

appreciative of Mayor Fehr’s request 

but felt the village should have 

brought the complaints to the board. 

Jean McDermand also added that 

‘We don’t always know what is going 

on in the library and don’t see how 

patrons are behaving.’ 

a jug band at the Coronation Evangelical Free Church fundraiser on Sat. May 4 at the Drop In Centre in Coronation 

entertained with toe-tapping music involving many from the audience, including, in front, Chris Goodbrand and 

Curtis Perry, Lois Grout on the drum and in the background, Pastor Clayton Grice, Dan Kinakin, Sonja Smith and 

Rod Klassen. The band also included alexis Perry playing spoons and yvonne Thulien with the cow bell.

Grade 10 Hughenden Public School students, from the left, Anna-Mae Rustad, Chloe Sayer, 

Reagan Lomheim, and Erin Johnson show the cakes they baked and decorated for the kids to 

win in the annual Cake Walk. 


Easter treats, after-school fun 

by Zac Rochon 

Students and staff at the 

Hughenden Public School 

(HPS) combined the annual 

Cake Walk for elementary 

students with after school 

activities for students on 

April 18 to enjoy before the 

spring break. 

Each year just before 

Easter, HPS staff and parents 

join forces to organize 

the popular Cake Walk, in 

which elementary students 

get to spend the last part of 

their day competing in 

activities in the gym for 

their choice of sweet and 

pretty prizes. 

Grade 7 students Dillan 

Dambrowsky and William 

Stringer were supervising 

and helping to keep things 

running smoothly during 

the event. 

“The kids had a lot of fun 

and were very happy after 

they got their cake,” said 

Dambrowsky. 

“I feel the elementary 

loved it and the teachers 

really appreciated all the 

work we put into it,” said 

Stringer. 

Grade 10 students 

Anna-Mae Rustad, Chloe 

Sayer, Reagan Lomheim, 

and Erin Johnson did 

double duty, baking and decorating 

layer cakes for their 

Foods class, and donating 

them as prizes for the elementary 

Cake Walk. 

To add to the spring fun 

this year, the Student’s 

Union decided to host a student 

night after school the 

same afternoon. 

Students of all ages were 

invited to play school-wide 

hide and seek and/or participate 

in a recreational floor 

hockey tournament. 

Junior High Foods classes 

contributed to this part of 

the day as well, by baking 

the hashbrown casserole 

that was served for supper. 

Thwarting the 

silent killer 

by Maja Congdon 

The Biology 20 students of 

Hughenden Public School 

enjoyed a visit on Thurs. 

April 4 by Tammy Sather 

and Brian Cooper, members 

of the local fire and rescue 

team. 

They helped the Grade 11 

students to grow their 

knowledge and skills 

regarding a healthy circulatory 

system. 

The students learned how 

to take blood pressure and 

blood glucose, along with 

how to test for carbon monoxide 

in their bodies. 

While testing for carbon 

monoxide, it was discovered 

that student Jared Johnson 

had a small amount of 

carbon monoxide in his 

body. He was sent to the hospital 

to get it looked at. 

The family later found out 

they had a carbon monoxide 

leak in their home furnace. 

Classmates were very 

concerned for Jared and 

impressed with the accidental 

intervention by fire 

and rescue. 

Regarding the classroom 

visit, Naomi Johnson 

remembers that “The diabetes 

needles hurt a lot”, 

said Naomi 

Johnson.

Congdon added, 

“it was a different 

setting to learn 

Bio in, which was 

nice”.

thought, prayer, and with support from

Kurek and his wife Danielle have 

two young sons. 

“There is truly no place I would 

rather be than east central Alberta. 

The people, the landscape, and the 

values of this region holds a special 

place in Canada.

TYLER LAWRASON 

ADMINISTRATOR 

M.D. OF PROVOST NO. 52 

OBITUARY 

Committed to his spiritual mission 

Ted Lawrence Andrew 

January 24, 1991 – 

April 25, 2019 

Ted Andrew, son of Tim 

and Lois Andrew of 

Youngstown, Alta. passed 

away in the arms of his parents 

at the Oyen Hospital the 

morning of April 25, 2019. 

Brothers Cole, Clay, 

Austin and sister-in-law 

Allison, have his example to 

guide them. 

Grandparents Jim and 

Dorothy Andrew, and 

Gordon and Barb Thielen 

hold his memory close to 

their hearts. 

Grandma Katie Thielen 

awaited him in heaven. 

Ted’s early life revolved 

around attending school in 

Youngstown from ECS to 

Grade 10; then South 

Central High in Oyen for 

Grades 11 and 12. 

He participated in School 

Reach and school curling. 

When watching curling, 

he would phone Grandpa T 

so they could critique the 

shots and predict the outcome 

of games. 

4-H was an integral part 

of his life. 

He won Champion 

Carcass Steer, was a camp 

counsellor many times, and 

won a trip to Ottawa 

through 4-H Selections. 

One of Ted’s life highlights 

was placing second at 

the 2009 4-H Provincial 

Speak-offs. 

This April he returned to 

Provincial’s to be one of the 

impromptu judges. 

Ted’s love of communicating 

was evident from an 

early age. 

His interest in broadcasting 

was initiated at Q91 

Drumheller with a week 

long internship. He became 

affectionately known as 

“Bedhead Ted.” 

Ted received his diploma 

in Broadcast Journalism 

from Lethbridge College. 

His first paying job was as 

a news reporter/newscaster 

for a VISTA radio station in 

Prince George, B.C. from 

2011 to 2015. 

It was there where Ted 

found a Young Adult group 

which ignited his desire to 

examine, proclaim and 

serve his increasing faith. 

This led Ted to apply to 

NET Ministries in 2015. 

NET’s mission is to 

encourage young people to 

love Jesus and embrace the 

life of the Church. 

In August 2015 Ted flew to 

Ireland and served there for 

the past four years. 

During the first two 

years, he was on teams that 

led workshops and retreats. 

He then moved into 

administration where he 

served as the Partnership 

Coordinator, 

helping team members 

raise funds to 

join the mission. 

December 8, 2017 

Ted was struck 

down with Ewing 

Sarcoma. 

The next six 

months were spent 

in Beaumont 

Andrew 

Hospital, Dublin 

receiving 

treatments. 

The nurses soon became 

his away from home family. 

They spent many hours 

discussing The Crown, 

Downton Abbey and the 

Royal Family. 

When family and friends 

visited there was lots of card 

playing and discussion. 

The generosity of the 

people of Ireland and 

Canada enabled Lois to live 

close by. (Google Joe Duffy – 

Ted from Canada) 

Ted and Lois returned to 

Canada June 13, 2018. 

The cancer returned July 

4 and thus began the 

Canadian portion of his 

treatments. 

The nurses and doctors at 

the Tom Baker Centre 

became his new second 

family. 

After exhausting all treatment 

alternatives for this 

rare cancer, Ted spent his 

last days at the Youngstown 

ranch with the company of 

those he loved, either in 

person or through the 

advantages of social media. 

Ted continued to enjoy 

Gramma Dorothy’s cooking, 

especially the butterhorns, 

and the frequent visits and 

crib games with Grandpa 

Jim. 

On April 15, 2019 Ted was 

honoured to be part of the 

Chrism Mass at St. Mary’s 

Cathedral, Calgary. 

At the mass he asked 

Bishop McGratten to Bless 

the Oil of the Sick. 

Priests will use this oil to 

anoint the sick during the 

coming year. 

Ted found peace having 

received this anointment 

several times during his 

illness. 

Ted remained dedicated to 

fulfilling his NET duties 

until his passing. 

Ted’s faith will live on in 

those who knew him. He 

was committed to his spiritual 

mission. 

Though he died 

early, he is at rest. 

As NET says, 

“Do Something 

Amazing”. 

Prayer Vigil 

Service was held 

Mon. April 29 and 

Mass of Christian 

Burial was held 

Tues. April 30 at 

the Sacred Heart 

Roman Catholic Church in 

Oyen, Alta. 

Officiating Clergy were 

Fr. Newton Rodrigues and 

Fr. Cristino Bouvette. 

Michelle Viste was the 

organist and John 

Ruschkowski was the guitarist. 

Special music was 

provided by the Net 

Ministries of Canada. 

Readers were Karen-Lee 

Andrew, Damien 

McDonough and Blanche 

Wack.

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS WEEK 

MAY 5 – 11, 2019 

Last year the County sent out a farm planning 

form with your tax notices – the yellow 

form - to be used in the event of rural 

emergencies and disasters. While we did 

get a large number returned, there is still 

a large number who didn’t. This is for 

your benefit and safety and ALL rural residents 

are encouraged to complete it (it’s 

voluntary!) and return to the County for 

use in emergencies only. It will even let 

you think about your farm site emergency 

plans! The form can be found on the 

County website www.countypaintearth.ca/ 

emergency-management 

The County also continues to promote a 

public awareness campaign entitled “Preparedness 

Begins at Home” and is making 

available the following resources: 

1) Emergency Preparedness Guide 

2) 72 Hour Emergency Kit Checklist 

3) Family Emergency Planning – 

5 Step Guide 

These documents are available for no 

charge downloaded from our website: 

www.countypaintearth.ca and printed 

at home. Families are also encouraged 

to check out www.getprepared.gc.ca for 

more information on family preparedness 

planning. 

The County of Paintearth is providing 

these resources in cooperation with 

Public Safety Canada and the Alberta 

Emergency Management Agency. Don’t 

wait until an emergency hits - please take 

time with your family to prepare now!

Hanna school fire 

fighting program? 

Terri Huxley 


J.C. Charyk Hanna School 

vice-principal Kelly Lewis 

and Hanna Fire Chief David 

Mohl presented information 

on the possible Fire Fighting 

Program that would be 

offered to students this fall. 

Initial efforts are being 

made to develop a program 

which would be two years in 

length, starting in Grade 11. 

Participating students will 

take a full slate of courses 

focused primarily on preparing 

them to become 

members of local volunteer 

fire departments, enter into 

a career as a firefighter, or to 

meet personal interests. 

The academic qualifications 

upon completing the 

required courses would not 

hamper 

their 

entrance into other careers, 

trades or post secondary 

education. 

Students are still required 

to meet the graduation 

requirements as set out by 

the Government of Alberta 

and Prairie Land Regional 

Division #25. 

Successful students will 

also be eligible to receive 

nationally recognized 

accreditation for fire 

fighting. 

The fire fighting course 

itself will be based on the 

NFPA 1001 (National Fire 

Protection Association) standards 

as presented in 

certified course materials. 

The Hanna Fire 

Department will provide certified 

instructors for the 

course as well as the facility 

for various functions such as 

the training and practices.

Castle 

building 

for 

Food 

Bank 

by K. Smawley 

Every year 

Theresetta School 

focuses on acts of 

service during the 

season of Lent. 

On April 17, the 

students and staff 

ended their Lent 

season with 

another whole 

school event, 

castle building. 

The students 

spent a couple 

weeks beforehand 

bringing in food 

bank items and 

stockpiling them 

in their teams 

designated 

location. 

On Wed. April 

24, the teams all 

brought their 

entire collection 

of food to the gym 

to build the most 

creative castles 

that they could 

design. 

All the teams 

put in a great 

showing and 

many creative 

visions were 

brought to life. 

The activity 

made for many 

laughs but, more 

importantly, the 

students were 

able to donate a 

multitude of 

items to the 

Castor Food 

Bank. 

Theresetta 

Student Council 

designated April 

25 as 80’s Day, 

their May Spirit 

Day choice. The 

students and 

staff had fun 

dressing up in 

their best 80’s 

themed gear. 

For Lent, Theresetta school teams stockpiled food bank items and 

were challenged on april 24 to create castles with their food bank 

donations. From the left, anthony Heidecker, Murry Bicknell, Nicolas

Inclusivity Project takes PLRD 

Morrin students to Germany 

Submitted 

Germany is a country 

rich in culture and history. 

It is an amazing 

place to visit and for 

three students from 

Morrin it was a trip of a 

lifetime. 

For two weeks, 

Madeline Cuncannon, 

Taylor Davidson, 

Thomas Chapin and 

PLRD Curriculum 

Coordinator Ellen 

Vanderkolk were 

immersed in German 

culture as they attended 

school and travelled the 

country. 

“We experienced every 

possible means of public 

transportation available—bus, 

taxi, tram, 

train and high-speed 

trains,” laughs 

Vanderkolk. 

The group stayed in 

Idstein, 30 minutes 

north of 

Frankfurt. The 

first week they 

visited Cologne, 

Frankfurt, 

Idstein, Mainz 

and Limburg. 

They also took the 

ICE (Intercontinental 

Ex-press) high 

speed train to 

Berlin and 

Munich/Dachau. 

“It’s amazing to 

have the opportunity 

to see history 

come alive, visiting 

historic 

places like the 

Brandenburg 

Gate in Berlin, 

the remains of the 

Berlin Wall, the 

Holocaust 

Memorial Site in 

Berlin and the 

Dachau 

Concentration 

Camp,” said 

Vanderkolk. 

The group also 

saw Renaissance 

castles, gothic 

cathedrals, the 

Gutenberg 

Museum, Roman 

ruins and an 

archaeological 

dig site. 

While the travelling 

part of the 

trip was an 

amazing opportunity, 

being 

immersed in 

classes at 

Pestalozzischule 

Idstein was an 

eye-opener for the 

students. 

The school is a 

Renaissance 

Castle with over 

1,000 students 

and 110 teachers. 

Vanderkolk 

describes the 

school as a highly 

academic school 

for Grades 5 to 12. 

The three students 

went to 

school with their 

host sibling, 

attending Grade 

9, 11 and 12 classes in 

English, German, 

Drama, History and 

Math. 

“Because classes were 

instructed in German, 

the students had a hard 

time understanding conversations,” 

explained 

Vanderkolk, adding they 

were able to help 

German students with 

their translations in 

English class. 

Each of the students 

stayed with a host family 

and were completely submerged 

in the culture. 

Vanderkolk explains 

that immersion trips like 

these are valuable to 

students. 

“Seeing how others 

live helps us to gain a 

greater appreciation for 

what we have here and 

aspire to learn new 

skills and ideas.” 

“They have a deeper 

understanding of how an 

immigrant might feel, 

living in a place where 

communication is 

difficult.” 

Despite their differences, 

the students also 

realized how students all 

over the world have 

many things in common, 

including similar 

interests. 

Creating this understanding 

is exactly what 

the PLRD Inclusivity 

Project is all about. 

“The Inclusivity 

Project provides high 

school students with an 

opportunity to take 

action against perceived 

injustices in our society - 

to combat prejudice and 

discrimination to make 

our world a better place
