STETTLER TOWN COUNCIL 

Council keeps COVID tax deadlines 

Stu Salkeld 



Stettler town council debated 

whether or not to keep their COVIDstyle 

tax deadlines and penalties, and 

ultimately decided to keep things 

status quo, but only for 2021. 

The debate was held at the April 20 

regular meeting of council. 

Town Chief Administrative Officer 

(CAO) Greg Switenky and Assistant 

CAO Steven Gerlitz presented councillors 

with a verbal update on how the 

town handled property tax deadlines 

last year amid much pandemic 

uncertainty. 

Normally, the Town of Stettler property 

tax deadline is at the end of June. 

Gerlitz reminded councillors they 

pushed back the tax deadline last year 

into the fall amidst the uncertainty 

caused by COVID. As tax season was 

approaching, Gerlitz asked councillors 

how they would like to handle it in 

2021. 

Gerlitz stated councillors had a few 

options before them, including 

returning the tax deadline to pre- 

COVID dates or keeping the COVID 

dates. 

Gerlitz also stated some property 

owners complained about the property 

tax penalties, as the total 24 per cent 

penalty broken up into two 12 per cent 

increments was too harsh for some 

people. 

Coun. Wayne Smith stated he felt it 

was time for the town to go back to pre- 

COVID dates. Smith stated that even 

though the pandemic continues, the 

Property owners 

can get 

substantial 

bills for 

firefighting

The Village of Morrin’s acting 

council noted at the regular council 

meeting April 21 the municipality’s 

financial situation could result in a 2021 

tax increase. 

Official Administrator (OA) Harold 

Johnsrude presented the draft 2021 

operating budget, and immediately 

situation is much more stable than it 

was a year ago. 

Staff and councillors discussed last 

year’s property tax payments and it 

was stated a large number of Stettler 

property taxes were still paid relatively 

early and there was not a huge 

amount of unpaid taxes left late in the 

year. 

In fact, noted Gerlitz, it was comparable 

to previous non-COVID years. 

Mayor Sean Nolls agreed with 

Lawlor, stating he was in favour of 

keeping the later property tax deadlines 

with a staggered late penalty, 

perhaps a three per cent penalty followed 

by a nine per cent penalty and 

finally a 12 per cent penalty instead of 

the 12 and 12 per cent. 

noted that budget was a deficit. 

In his memo presented at the council 

meeting Johnsrude stated several 

things within the village’s finances 

needed to be addressed “due to their 

significant nature.” 

Johnsrude then said, “The village is 

in a difficult financial position.” 

The OA noted the operating budget as 

of the council meeting sits at a $49,000 

deficit, and stated since it was a draft 

document it would not be available on 

the village website, but physical copies 

would be available at the village office. 

Johnsrude pointed out several village 

sources of revenue and expense 

remained at their 2020 levels, and these 

probably needed to be discussed, and he 

mentioned utility rates several times at 

the meeting.

KNEEHILL COUNCIL 

Reserve bid set for property with unpaid tax bill 

Stu Salkeld 



Kneehill County will move ahead 

with the public sale of a Torrington 

property with an unpaid tax bill. The 

decision was made by council at their 

regular meeting April 13. 

Councillors listened to a presentation 

from Caroline Siverson, property 

tax officer, requesting councillors set 

the reserve bid for the property. 

“Pursuant to the MGA, Part 10, 

Section 8, council sets the reserve bid 

for Roll 32263445100, Plan 5594FI, Block 

6, Lot 4, Torrington at $17,000 with the 

following conditions: The property 

must not be sold for less than the 

reserve bid, the purchaser takes possession 

of the property ‘as is,’ the 

purchaser will be responsible for the 

full 2021 (tax bill), the purchaser is to 

pay all transfer costs, the purchaser to 

pay GST and the full purchase price 

 

must be paid by a certified cheque or 

cash by end of business, May 27, 2021.” 

Siverson stated Kneehill County has 

tried to contact the property owner but 

has been unable to locate anyone. The 

property hasn’t been occupied since 

2016. 

She stated the reserve bid is required 

and must be as close to market value as 

possible. 

Siverson stated she contacted a local 

real estate agent to find out what would 

be a fair price for the property in question, 

and the real estate agent stated 

between $15,000 and $17,000 would be 

fair. 

It was noted during the meeting an 

old mobile home is currently on the 

property and doesn’t appear liveable, 

plus an old shed and an abandoned 

vehicle would all have to be removed at 

the new owner’s expense. 

A motion was made to set the reserve 

bid at $17,000 with the conditions mentioned 

above, but at this point Coun. 

PAINTEARTH COUNTY 

Mill rate increase for ratepayers 

Terri Huxley 


A mill rate increase of one per cent 

was approved for County of Paintearth 

ratepayers for the 2021 tax year. 

Council, at their regular meeting on 

Tues. April 20, carried all three readings 

of the bylaw to solidify these rates 

which are levied against assessable 

property. 

The estimated municipal expenditures 

and transfers set out in the 

budget for the county for 2021 is a total 

of $16,730,908 while the estimated 

municipal revenues and transfers from 

all sources other than taxation is estimated 

at $3,111,372. 

The balance of $13,619,536 is to be 

raised by general municipal taxation. 

The Alberta School Foundation 

Fund (ASFF) comes to $540,524 for residential/farmland 

and $1,522,572 for 

non-residential and linear properties. 

Seniors Foundation requisition 

comes to $553,722 and Designated 

Industrial Properties is $60,575. 

Total assessment for all types of 

properties comes to $1,052,746,050. 

General municipal mill rates for residential 

sits at 4.846303, farmland at 

10.423978, non-residential/linear at 

14.439101 and machinery and equipment 

at 14.439101. Seniors Foundation 

sits at 0.526760. 

Brownfield water lines 

Greg Sentis, a project manager for 

MPE Engineering of Red Deer came to 

council to help with any questions that 

may arise from the Brownfield water 

main upgrades project. 

A tender was put out with all bids to 

be returned by April 8. 

Sentis shared that the lowest bid 

from a Black Diamond company, Elite 

Site Services was recommended by the 

engineers, not only for the lowest price 

but also from their reputation of previous 

work done with them. 

“They are one of my more go-to guys. 

They do take care of the communities 

they are working in,” said Sentis. 

Their bid came in at $156,014.25 

which administration felt was close to 

the quote they anticipated to get for this 

project. 

Council passed a motion to go with 

Elite Site Services for this amount. 

The county has received Municipal 

Stimulus Program (MSP) grant 

funding for $40,000 for this project as 

well as reserves specifically for water 

and sewer projects. 

Fleet ASP open hearing 

Fleet’s Area Structure Plan (ASP) 

reached the public hearing stage on 

Tues. April 20. 

Administration has proposed creating 

eight residential properties in 

the small hamlet. 

Community services director Todd 

Pawsey shared that two –possibly 

three – lots have already been spoken 

for. 

There was no one from the public in 

attendance for the hearing but three 

letters were received about the possibility 

of a lagoon system. 

Residents nearby received an information 

package on the rail lands plan. 

Donna Hutchison, a property owner 

within Fleet shared in a letter that she 

was opposed to the idea of a communal 

lagoon system as proposed for the 

long-term future plan, opting for 

approval of septic systems at each lot. 

This statement was echoed by property 

owners Sherry Sinclair and 

Warren McKenzie. 

More discussion will take place 

when the ASP is brought back in May 

for second and third reading. 

Halkirk grader shed bid 

A county-issued tender for construction 

services for the design and 

construction of the Halkirk grader 

shed closed on April 15. 

Five bids came in ranging from 

$375,000 to $762,498. 

Council passed a motion to go with 

Klassen Construction Ltd. on a wood 

structure for an initial estimate of 

$375,000. 

The county does expect to negotiate 

a few changes with some minor 

upgrades such as thicker tin on the 

roof and thicker slab inside the structure 

which could range between an 

additional $10,000 and $25,000. 

The open style of the wooden 

building will allow for these changes. 

Partial funding will come from MSP 

with the remainder coming from 

public works restricted surplus. 

Castor Library funding 

The Castor Municipal Library has 

requested the county send their 

annual funding early. 

Rather than their normal time in 

July, council agreed to give the $7,500 

to them this month for the 2021 year. 

“The library board has hired a new 

library manager and we would like to 

be able to start programming as soon 

as possible. 

Wade Christie stated he felt that price 

was too high and made a friendly 

amendment to the motion of the lower 

price of $15,000 to start the bidding. 

Councillors unanimously approved 

the reserve bid of $15,000 for the 

Torrington property in question. 

“Getting this 

grant earlier 

this year will 

allow us to do 

so,” stated Lynn 

Sabo, board 

chair, in her 

letter to council.

STETTLER COUNTY COUNCIL 

Inspection fee on frozen road should be waived 

However, Green stated 

Stu Salkeld 

Local Journalism 

Initiative reporter 


One County of Stettler councillor 

voiced concern that some 

truck inspection fees aren’t necessary 

in cold weather. The 

concern was voiced at the April 

14 regular meeting of council. 

Coun. Ernie Gendre, during a 

part of the meeting where councillors 

can bring forth their own 

concerns or issues, stated he 

was concerned with the county 

policy of requiring certain 

overload inspections, especially 

in wintertime. 

Gendre stated a fee is charged 

to the truck driver for the 

inspection which Gendre stated 

doesn’t always seem necessary 

in cold weather when the 

ground is frozen. 

According to the county’s 

Public Works section of the fees 

bylaw, the inspection fee for an 

overload is $450 per occurrence. 

Director of Operations Rick 

Green answered Gender’s concern, 

stating Gendre’s 

suggestion to waive certain fees 

or inspections in cold weather is 

possible and depends greatly on 

road conditions. 

Large commercial trucks, 

especially if they’re hauling 

oversize loads, can potentially 

damage a road if the road is 

softening due to springtime, 

rain or other conditions. 

Overload damage to a road 

can range from thousands to 

hundreds of thousands of 

dollars. 

Green pointed out, generally 

speaking, roads in Stettler 

County aren’t frozen solid until 

after Christmas plus unexpected 

warm spells can pop up. 

whether a physical inspection 

of an overload is needed 

when county staff know the 

road is frozen was a good 

question. 

He did note however, that 

even if fees are waived, 

drivers would still have to 

register the load with the 

county so Public Works 

knows what’s going down 

the roads. 

Reeve Larry Clarke stated 

trucking companies expect 

to pay fees, which are commonly 

charged everywhere. 

“It’s nothing new,” said 

the reeve. 

Youth involved in Morrin 2017 

homicide given one-year probation 

Terri Huxley 


The Drumheller Courthouse 

on Fri. April 23 bared witness to 

the conclusion of one chapter in 

the Morrin murder that took 

place in 2017. 

A trial of the youth involved 

ended with Honourable R.J. 

Hall handing the now 20-yearold 

a one-year probation with 

various conditions including 

the prohibition of weapons for 

two years. 

Recently, an update was given 

saying the youth will be completing 

her high school studies 

remotely and has been said to 

be doing well in therapy as 

described in three reference letters 

from psychologists and a 

teacher. 

She has been under house 

arrest for 589 days and found to 

not break any rules laid out. 

The crown prosecution had 

pushed for two-years probation 

but the judge determined that 

589 days completed already 

allowed for one-year to be 

appropriate instead. 

The youth will not be identified 

as this information is under 

a publication ban and is not 

allowed under the Youth 

Criminal Justice Act. 

The youth was charged with 

Conspiracy to Commit Murder 

which she plead guilty to on 

Jan. 8, 2021. 

The judge agreed it was an 

‘egregious’ crime that was 

committed. 

Fazal Rehman became a 

victim at the hands of Dylan 

Howard who was sentenced to 

life in prison in 2019 after 

pleading guilty to First Degree 

Murder. 

Rehman died on Oct. 16, 2017 

due to the gunshot wounds and 

stabbing caused by Howard, 

both acts of which were determined 

to be fatal after 

examination. 

Agreed statements 

Victim impact statements 

were submitted by family which 

were read out at the youth’s 

trial on April 23. 

Judge Hall read out the 

agreed statement of facts which 

included the difficult 

upbringing the youth endured. 

This included continual 

sexual abuse by her biological 

father. 

He was previously convicted 

and sentenced to penitentiary 

for these significant crimes 

against her. 

The relationship between her 

and her mother and step-father 

was described in the agreed 

statement of facts as 

dysfunctional. 

By the summer of 2017, she 

had developed a drug addiction 

to mostly methamphetamine 

but also used cocaine, cannabis 

and other illicit drugs. 

Also during this time, the 

youth started a sexual relationship 

with Howard who was 

20-years-old at the time while 

she was 15. 

They then met with Rehman 

on many occasions over a 

period of several weeks to 

exchange guns for methamphetamine 

and cocaine. 

It is said on at least one occasion 

Rehman provided the 

youth with additional drugs in 

exchange for sexual services 

from her. He was 36-years-old. 

“All sexual activities between 

him [and her] were significant 

sexual assaults perpetrated on 

her. At the time [she] did not 

understand the distinction 

between the term ‘rape’ and 

forced oral sex,” noted the 

statement. 

“[She] was extremely upset 

about being sexually assaulted 

by Rehman. She told some 

people that he had raped her 

and told others he forced her to 

perform oral sex on him.” 

Her use of meth increased as 

a result of this as did her relationship 

with Howard. 

This was when the pair began 

speaking about killing Rehman 

as revenge for the sexual 

assaults. 

On Sept. 29, 2017, the youth 

was at her family home. Her 

mother and step-father found a 

large amount of methamphetamine 

on her. 

An argument broke out 

between them. From this, she 

flushed the drugs down the 

toilet and stated the words to 

the effect that she would “have 

to kill my dealer” as she owed 

Rehamn money for the drugs. 

From that point the youth 

lived at Howard’s house. 

Planned murder 

It was decided on October 15 

that the pair would lure 

Rehman out to Morrin under 

the guise of their usual 

exchange of guns for drugs. 

At about 6:30 a.m. the next 

day, she and Howard entered 

her family home where she stole 

her mother’s 7mm Remington 

hunting rifle, an ammunition 

clip and two bullets. 

They also acquired a knife 

and a container of flammable 

substance believed to be a mixture 

of gasoline and diesel fuel 

which was later used to set 

Rehman’s body and the vehicle 

on fire. 

They then drove to the 

meeting spot south of Morrin on 

Range Road 20-3. 

Rehmann was effectively 

murdered by the stabbing and 

gunshot wounds. 

The youth was present at the 

scene of the homicide but did 

not actively participate in the 

acts, she remained in Howard’s 

vehicle. 

Arrest 

The first 911 call came in at 

7:58 a.m. where the situation 

was determined to be a 

homicide. 

On Oct. 26, 2017, the pair were 

arrested near Beiseker. 

The youth was released after 

being charged for theft under 

$5,000 for this incident after two 

days of detainment.

What’s a government to do when getting 

as many people as possible into 

the workforce is the key to sustained 

economic growth? 

Since the 1980’s, consumption, not 

manufacturing, has been Canada’s 

economic driver—in fact, as much as 

80 per cent of GDP. Much of this 

employment growth has been in low 

paying service jobs, more often than 

not, filled by women. 

Immigration to Canada is a critical 

component to increase consumption 

and grow the economy. Equally important, 

are 

mothers, many 

of whom cannot 

afford to work 

because childcare 

is too 

expensive. In 

most urban 

areas, where the 

majority of 

Canadians live, 

childcare for one 

toddler can cost 

more than $1,400 

per month. 

Governments 

dribbling out 

childcare benefits 

to individuals has failed miserably 

to increase the supply of affordable 

childcare spaces to meet the overwhelming 

demand. 

It took a female finance minister to 

connect the dots. By reducing employment 

barriers to a large swath of 

working-age Canadians through 

affordable childcare, the offset will be 

higher productivity and significant 

economic growth. Quebec’s $5 per day 

childcare has more than paid for itself 

through the multiplier effect of 

increased female participation in the 

workplace. 

The argument over affordable childcare 

is sharply divided between those 

who believe a woman should be a wife 

and full-time mom versus those parents 

who have no choice but to work, 

single parents who need to go back to 

school, or mothers who want the same 

opportunities as fathers to be a parent 

and pursue a career. 

The argument is between parents 

who don’t want their tax dollars going 

to support other children, and parents 

who work at minimum wage jobs and 

don’t have a spouse or free babysitting 

from grandparents. 

In a nutshell, it’s the great divide 

between the “Leave-it-to-Beaver” 

Subscriptions: 

$52.50 in Canada; $98.70 in US; 

$183.75 Overseas.

initial investment in

sounds like a lot of money—

women, immigrants, 

children and the Canadian 

economy are great. 

families whose mothers don’t need to 

work and the vast majority of families 

and single parents who do. 

Finance Minister, Chrystia Freeland 

has thrown the gauntlet down and now 

we women wait to see how our 10 male 

premiers will react to a policy that has 

no direct benefit for them. 

We already know the answer in 

Alberta. 

Even in a pandemic, our Premier 

has refused to make deals with ‘that 

guy in Ottawa’ foregoing millions of 

dollars that could have been used early 

on to assist front-line workers and 

small businesses. So, there is no hope 

that our wife-less, childless, 52-yearold 

male Premier 

would even entertain 

Freeland’s 

offer. 

Kenney’s personal 

grudges and 

rigid parochial 

beliefs have 

always trumped 

cooperation, consultation 

and 

negotiations. 

While Quebec, 

British Columbia, 

Newfoundland, 

the Maritime 

provinces will cut 

a deal, and more 

than likely Ontario and Manitoba, 

Saskatchewan and Alberta will 

decline and cling to the ‘good ole days’ 

where moms stay at home, the husband 

provides, and divorces are few. 

In contrast, business communities 

understand how important affordable 

childcare is to their success and economic 

wellbeing. 

Adam Legge, President of the 

Business Council of Alberta, reinforced 

this view when commenting on 

the 2021 budget. He opined that robust 

national childcare and early education 

programs are key investments that 

will position Canada for the future. 

Research overwhelmingly suggests 

early childhood learning is the major 

determinant of an adult’s future productivity. 

In the long term, building 

productive citizens indirectly benefits 

everyone. 

Even though the initial investment 

in affordable childcare sounds like a 

lot of money—the long-term dividends 

for women, immigrants, children and 

the Canadian economy are great. 

To understand the significance of 

this program however, one needs to 

live and work in a broader context 

than Mr. Kenney’s male-dominated, 

elitist bubble.

MEMBER OF: 

Property owners can get 

substantial bills for firefighting 

Stu Salkeld 



People across the province were 

talking about a recent incident in the 

Edmonton area where property 

owners released firefighters from battling 

a structure blaze for the simple 

fact the property owners could face a 

firefighting bill of up to $60,000, which 

is separate from property damage 

costs. 

It’s possible some residents in the 

ECA Review circulation area could face 

the same issue if they’re not familiar 

with how firefighting costs are calculated 

and what each property owner’s 

insurance covers. 

Village of Alix Chief Administrative 

Officer (CAO) Michelle White stated 

Alix councillors recently approved a 

policy that defines how firefighting 

response will be billed. 

She noted the policy aligns the village 

with Lacombe County because 

Alix is part of their regional emergency 

management agency; the Alix 

department responds to calls in town, 

and also out in the county. 

White noted that the policy states if 

the fire department responds to an 

incident within the village boundaries 

it will be billed whether it was a motor 

vehicle collision or a fire. It doesn’t 

necessarily have to be a resident of 

Alix, either, she stated. 

The CAO noted a fee will be charged 

to cover the fire department’s time, but 

the fee depends on the situation and 

the village will work with the RCMP to 

see if charges are being laid in certain 

circumstances. 

If the total response is less than an 

hour there will be no charge, but over 

an hour will be billed based on the 

time the response took to resolve. In 

the event of a large structure fire this 

could be substantial. 

The CAO pointed out anyone who 

gets an invoice for firefighting 

response can appeal to village council 

within 14 days.

Just down the road the Village of 

Clive, also part of Lacombe County’s 

emergency response region, passed a 

new fire control bylaw recently; the 

Clive department responds to in-town 

calls and rural calls. 

Village CAO Carla Kenney stated the 

village pays an honorarium to firefighters 

to recognize increased 

training and hourly work. 

While property taxes pay for equipment 

and buildings, the cost of 

firefighter time is passed on in 

response fees. 

Kenney stated firefighters often 

leave their day jobs to answer emergency 

calls and they are always paid a 

minimum of three hours per call. 

Lacombe County Emergency 

Management Director / County Fire 

Chief Drayton Bussiere stated that the 

department bills for motor vehicle collisions 

(MVC) and structure fires 

response, and an invoice goes to the 

owner of the property or the occupier, 

in the case of a renter. 

The policy also has a clause that 

states the bill goes to whoever is 

responsible for the emergency 

response in the case of a MVC or some 

fires. The regional chief noted the 

department keeps in contact with 

police services. 

He noted the invoices are calculated 

hourly and if the total response time is 

less than an hour, there is no charge. 

Bussiere states rather than use the 

term “false alarm,” he prefers “nuisance 

alarm,” to reflect the fact that a 

properly functioning fire alarm has 

been triggered. 

He said the first response to a nuisance 

alarm is free of charge but the 

second and subsequent response to the 

same location is billed. 

He confirmed medical first response 

is not billed by the local fire 

department. 

When it comes to billing for fire 

response, the regional fire chief 

advised people to talk to their insurance 

brokers to ensure they have the 

coverage they want.

Operating budget to return 

Cont’d from Pg 1 

The OA noted most municipalities 

run their utility 

departments, such as water, 

sewer and garbage pick-up, at 

levels sufficient enough to pay 

for themselves but Morrin currently 

doesn’t do that. 

The OA noted the utilities are 

being subsidized by the village. 

Johnsrude stated the operating 

budget was drafted in 

such a way that no increases to 

rates were made, hence the 

deficit. 

During the discussion it was 

also noted that the village’s 

recent commitment of $50,000 to 

the Friends of Morrin School 

still stands and will be made in 

five annual payments of $10,000. 

The OA noted that, as an 

administrator appointed by the 

Minister of Municipal Affairs, 

he was loathe to make any significant 

financial commitments 

but added that some issues in 

the village’s finances needed to 

be addressed. 

He also noted the 2021 operating 

budget will return to the 

May regular council meeting 

where the capital budget and 

property tax bylaw will be 

presented. 

Since the meeting was being 

held over the internet via Zoom, 

Johnsrude gave the public a 

chance to ask questions about 

the draft operating budget, but 

there were none. 

2020 financial statement 

The village’s official auditor 

Monica Faupel of Ascend 

Chartered Accountants presented 

the audited 2020 

financial statements and gave 

the village a clean bill of fiscal 

health but, when asked, did 

voice certain concerns. 

Faupel stated in her report 

that the 2020 consolidated financial 

statements did accurately 

represent the financial situation 

of the village as of Dec. 31, 2020. 

“The village was given a clean 

audit,” said Faupel. 

She went through the statement 

summary in detail, 

explaining some of the numbers 

in the report, including 

Municipal Sustainability 

Initiative (MSI) grant funding 

and GST rebate amounts went 

down, deferred revenue was up 

to $928,297 and net municipal 

taxes in 2020 were $195,435. 

Johnsrude had questions 

about unpaid taxes on certain 

properties and Faupel answered 

there had to be an evaluation of 

what the value of these properties 

were in relation to the tax 

bills owed. 

Johnsrude noted anyone 

reading the financial statement 

should always take into account 

amortization, which is the 

annual decline in value of 

things like publicly-owned 

buildings and vehicles. 

He asked the auditor if she 

had any concerns. 

Faupel stated prior reports to 

the village should be reviewed 

and that she was concerned 

about how capital projects for 

the village were being funded, 

as that was not always clear. 

Johnsrude moved and passed 

a resolution to accept the 2020 

financial statements. 

Engineering report 

The council hosted Chris 

Watson of MPE Engineering 

who spent much of his presentation 

discussing a 2017 

assessment of the village’s 

infrastructure needs, along 

with the water plant and the 

sewer pipe situation underneath 

2nd Ave. North. 

Watson noted the village’s 

prime project should be 2nd 

Ave. North, which has a price 

tag in the $600,000 range 

according to the 2017 

assessment. 

It was stated at the meeting 

four residences on that avenue 

have experienced back-ups or 

other problems. 

Public Works Foreman Dave 

Benci pointed out though that 

the issues with village’s fire 

hydrants weren’t as bad as initially 

feared. 

He stated it looks like only 

one hydrant needs to be 

replaced, while others have 

issues but are still usable. 

especially around food. 

She explained that with 

the empty shelves everyone 

experienced last year it has 

created an appreciation for 

local food and other 

necessities. 

“It’s a good time to act on 

that natural interest of the 

consumers,” said Jackson. 

Fire Department 

disbursement 

The Community 

Enhancement Fund has 

been collecting donations 

designated to the 

Forestburg Fire 

Department. 

Since the fire department 

is an entity of the Village of 

Forestburg, the funds of 

$6,550 have not been disbursed 

and retained in the 

bank account. 

Administration asked 

council to allow these funds 

to be transferred into their 

bank account to be used to

world championship management group 

Submitted 

Hockey Canada has appointed 

Roberto Luongo (Montreal, Que./ 

Florida, NHL) general manager of 

Canada’s National Men’s Team for the 

2021 IIHF World Championship, May 

21-June 6 in Riga, Latvia. 

Joining Luongo on the management 

group will be Shane Doan of 

Halkirk, Alta. and Scott 

Salmond of Creston, B.C., 

senior-vice-president of 

national teams with Hockey 

Canada. 

Doan most recently 

worked with the Team 

Canada management group 

at the 2019 Spengler Cup, 

winning the championship, 

and was a consultant at the 

2019 IIHF World 

Championship, winning a silver 

medal. 

Doan 

As a player, he represented Canada 

six times at the IIHF World 

Championship (1999, 2003, 2005, 2007, 

2008, 2009), where he won two gold 

medals (2003, 2007) and three silver 

(2005, 2008, 2009). 

Doan also won the 2004 World Cup of 

Hockey and wore the Maple Leaf at the 

2006 Olympic Winter Games. 

He played 21 seasons (1995-2017) with 

the Winnipeg Jets and Arizona 

Coyotes, and is the all-time franchise 

leader in goals (395), assists (560) and 

points (955). 

The group will oversee and lead all 

hockey operations, including staff and 

player selection and evaluation as 

Canada looks to win its first gold 

medal since 2016. 

With the 2022 Olympic Winter 

Games in Beijing, China less than one 

year away, the 2021 IIHF World 

Championship will serve as an 

important step in the evaluation and 

preparation process, should NHL 

players participate, as both Luongo 

and Salmond were recently named to 

the Olympic management group. 

“Hockey Canada is excited to have 

Roberto lead our management group at 

the IIHF World Championship this 

year, and to continue to work 

with our entire Olympic management 

team as we continue 

to prepare for the 2022 

Olympics,” said Tom Renney, 

chief executive officer of 

Hockey Canada. 

“We are also fortunate to 

have Shane and Scott contribute 

as assistant general 

managers; both individuals 

bring a wealth of experience 

to Canada’s National Men’s 

Team. Roberto, Shane and Scott bring 

a strong combination of NHL and 

international experience, both on and 

off the ice, and they will complement 

each other as we work towards 

building a team that can compete for a 

gold medal.” 

Canada opens the 2021 IIHF World 

Championship on Friday, May 21 at 

Arena Riga against host Latvia with 

preliminaryround 

games 

through Tuesday, 

June 1. 

Canada will 

also face Italy,

Helmer Dam viability study 

Terri Huxley 


Over the last several years there 

have been concerns about the viability 

of Helmer Dam as a recreational 

fishing area because of less than satisfactory 

water quality. 

In January of 2020, the Town of 

Hanna applied for funding through the 

Alberta Conservation Association to 

undertake a revitalization of Helmer 

Dam to improve the water and habitat 

quality of the reservoir to support a 

recreational fishing area. 

The town was successful with its 

application and received funding in the 

amount of $10,000 to conduct Phase 1 of 

the project which includes a summer 

and winter fish and fish habitat assessment 

to determine if the reservoir can 

support various species such as 

Rainbow Trout or Yellow Perch 

throughout the year. 

The information collected during 

Phase 1 is intended to allow the Town 

of Hanna to make recommendations 

for the improvement and revitalization 

of Helmer Reservoir for multi-season 

fishing use. 

Field technicians were on site in the 

summer of 2020, where they spent two 

full days conducting both trap and gill 

netting. 

The results were documented within 

the report and note the presence of 

Lake Chub, Fathead Minnow and 

Rainbow Trout. Both Lake Chub and 

Fathead Minnows are smaller, with 

the trout a larger size (trout netted 

were 13 – 14 inched in length). 

At the Oct. 13, 2020 regular meeting, 

council reviewed and accepted for 

information the interim Fish Habitat 

Suitability Phase 1 Study for Helmer 

Dam prepared by Triton 

Environmental Consultants. 

Since the Interim Report was 

received additional work was completed 

over the winter, including 

additional water testing to determine 

the quality of the water body and the 

fish habitat during winter months to 

complete Phase 1 of the study. 

Recommendations from the report 

included investigating the sources of 

eutrophication (water enrichment) of 

the reservoir and possible mitigations 

for reducing nutrient loads, EC, and pH 

to levels that will enable healthier and 

more resilient aquatic communities in 

the future. 

It also included a complete profile of 

seasonal changes that will be beneficial 

for the establishment of the 

revitalization methods and the practical 

application of systems, such as the 

location of aerators. 

Fulsome seasonal information 

related to the water quality and habitat 

characteristics of Helmer Reservoir 

may inform a review of other complementary 

methods that may be 

beneficial to improve fish habitat and 

ensure the long-term viability of the 

project. 

They suggested a possible solution 

for the issue of winter kill would be the 

installation of an aeration system 

capable of maintaining ice-free area(s) 

during the winter months. 

This would promote re-oxygenation 

of the reservoir. 

This solution would require additional 

investigation to determine 

whether such a system would be feasible 

on a waterbody the size of Helmer 

Reservoir. 

Maintaining reservoir at capacity as 

much as possible through the hottest 

portions of the summer may maintain 

a level of thermal stratification for sufficient 

time to reduce heat stress in 

stocked trout. 

Administration has applied for additional 

funding in the amount of $30,000 

to complete Phase 2 of this study. 

Phase 2 work will augment the data

HUGHENDEN SCHOOL 

E-Sports and school 

by Lowell Cuthbert and 

Christopher Legault 

School and E-Sports are two completely 

different things. 

In one of them, people learn and prepare 

for the future and in the other you 

play a game, run a storyline or compete 

with friends in various virtual 

environments. 

What do these things have to do with 

each other? 

School rarely reminds students of a 

video game, yet students are offered a 

huge range of activities, they spend 

time with friends while learning new 

things. 

After their busy day at school, students 

often go home and play video 

games, either messing with sandbox 

games – where players must consider 

the laws of physics to create and defend 

worlds – or playing linear games or 

multiplayer games which follow a loose 

or strict storyline and require a rich 

involvement with plot and conflict to 

be successful. 

In fact, some classes in junior high 

do make use of educational games and 

competitions. 

Teachers make use of sites like 

Kahoot, Booklet or Quizlet and classes 

are always engaged while learning in 

this competitive way. 

But E-Sports are quite different from 

those. 

Most people, like Grade 9 student 

Gabe Sortland, know of the appeal of 

competitive E-Sports. 

“I don’t know much about them, but 

you could make a lot of money off 

them.” 

Sortland also thinks that it’s possible 

to incorporate E-Sports into school, but 

says “I think it will take a while.” 

Fellow student Bryden Laing thinks 

that E-Sports “are cool but I don’t 

think it will become a thing because it 

could distract students and make their 

marks go down.” 

Recently, Hughenden Public School 

principal Ryan Duffett was asked jokingly 

when he was going to play in a 

video game tournament in the school. 

To everyone’s surprise, his response 

was that he actually was thinking 

about making some type of E-Sports or 

gaming club or event for after school 

hours. 

It seems as though E-Sports and 

school might have a future together 

after all.

Hanna male charged for repeat drug trafficking 

Submitted 

Drumheller RCMP and Drumheller 

Crime Reduction Unit were on patrol 

in the evening hours of April 21, 2021 

when they identified a male they knew 

and recognized was in breach of a 

court order. 

Michael Farmer (39), of Hanna, Alta. 

was arrested for failing to comply with 

his release conditions. 

Incidental to the arrest, police 

located what is believed to be methamphetamine, 

psilocybin (mushrooms), 

fentanyl and proceeds of crime. 

Farmer was charged for possession 

of a controlled substance for the 

RCMP 

purpose of trafficking and failing to 

comply with his undertaking. 

At the time of his arrest, Farmer 

was on release conditions for similar 

offences. 

Farmer was held for a Judicial 

Interim Release hearing and was 

released to appear on April 23, 2021 in 

Drumheller Provincial Court. 

Safe Exchange Zone 

The Three Hills RCMP Detachment 

is introducing a Safe Exchange Zone to 

help provide a space for people to meet 

when buying and selling items online. 

The Safe Exchange Zone is located 

in the parking lot at the Three Hills 

RCMP detachment, located at 719 2nd 

Street North in Three Hills. 

Detachment Commander Sgt. Jamie 

Day believes this area will provide an 

added level of comfort to those meeting 

others for online purchases, child custody 

exchange or any face to face 

meetings. 

It is open 24/7, however, Three Hills 

RCMP encourage residents to visit 

during daytime hours. 

Officers will not be available to 

supervise these meetings or help 

people negotiate their sales.

Distracted driving is one of the 

largest causes of collisions, injuries 

and deaths on Canada’s roads. 

. While cell phone use is the 

leading cause of these accidents, any 

activity that takes your attention 

away from the road can have disastrous 

consequences. 

For Distracted Driving Awareness 

Month, which takes place every year 

in April, here are some steps you can 

take to avoid being distracted while 

you drive. 

1. Plan your route in advance. 

Program your GPS beforehand and 

turn up the volume so you don’t have 

to look at the screen for directions. 

2. Get ready before you leave. You 

shouldn’t be straightening your tie, 

checking your teeth or fixing your 

hair and makeup once you’re on the 

road. 

3. Eat before or after your trip. It

might be convenient, but snacking on 

the road splits your focus and prevents 

you from keeping both hands 

on the wheel. 

4. Make yourself comfortable. 

Adjust the mirrors, seat, sound 

system and climate controls before 

you leave so you don’t have to fiddle 

with them later. 

5. Secure animals in the back. Pets 

should be harnessed or put in a crate 

to keep them safe and ensure they 

don’t block your view or bump into 

the steering wheel. 

6. Put your phone on silent. If you 

don’t hear any notifications, you’ll be 

less tempted to check your phone. 

Place it out of reach for good 

measure. 

7. Store your bags securely. This 

will prevent them from falling over. 

If items do end up rolling around on 

the floor, don’t reach for them while 

you’re driving. 

8. Pull over to help your kids. 

Reaching into the backseat to 

retrieve a toy or open a snack can 

cause you to lose control of your 

vehicle. 

To prevent car accidents, you need 

to remain alert. By following these 

precautions, you’ll help keep yourself, 

your passengers and other road 

users safe.

Hanna Spray Park landscaping in motion 

 

Terri Huxley 


The construction of a 

spray park within the 

Town of Hanna has been 

discussed in the community 

for many years. 

Council passed a 

motion at their regular 

GARDENING 

Four challenging 

vegetables to grow 

With enough 

sunlight and 

water, most vegetables 

are easy to 

grow. 

However, if 

you’re looking for 

a challenge, here 

are four crops 

that gardeners 

tend to struggle 

with. 

• Carrots need 

to be consistently 

watered and 

weeded. 

They also 

require soil that 

has the right 

nutrients and 

temperature to 

avoid coming out 

skinny, cracked, 

deformed or 

bitter. 

• Cauliflower 

heads can turn 

brown in borondeficient 

soil or 

develop a yellow 

tint if the plant 

gets too much 

sun. 

Additionally, 

exposure to temperature 

fluctuations early 

in the season can 

stunt its growth. 

• Celery stalks 

may go to seed 

too soon or not 

grow at all if 

exposed to cold 

temperatures. 

They also need 

soil with just the 

meeting April 13 authorizing 

the town to award 

the spray park landscaping 

project to 

PlayQuest Recreation to 

install a Pour in Place 

rubber surface for a cost 

of $35,001 plus tax for 146 

square metres. 

It was further accepted 

An overview of the rubber surface to be installed in time for 

the park opening this summer. ECA Review/Submitted 

right amount of 

calcium and 

boron. 

• Head lettuce 

requires more 

time to mature 

than leaf lettuce. 

This increases 

the likelihood 

that the plant will 

go to seed too 

soon and give the 

leaves a bitter 

taste.

that the 2021 capital 

budget for the spray park

to $35,001 to reflect the 

purchase and 

installation. 

This motion passed 5 - 

2 with Coun. Sandra 

Beaudoin and Coun. 

Gerald Campion opposed 

at Hanna’s latest council 

meeting on April 13. 

Coun. Campion asked 

if having Coun. Kyle 

Olsen on the Spray Park 

committee while also 

serving as councillor was 

considered a conflict of 

interest. 

Chief Administrative 

Officer (CAO) Kim Neill 

stated that this was not 

the case, saying they 

focus on pecuniary 

interest where a councillor 

or their family is 

directly benefiting financially 

from the topic of 

conversation. 

In that instance, the 

councillor would excuse 

themselves from the vote. 

Coun. Beaudoin asked 

to have the committee 

look for funding from 

other sources, suggesting 

the Elks Club, before 

coming to council for 

more money over the 

annual amount set out. 

Coun. Olsen mentioned 

they are in no way interested 

in stopping their 

efforts to get grant 

funding to cover this 

extra $35,000. 

This $35,001 will be 

given by the town to get 

the Pour in Place and so 

it can be ordered and 

installed prior to the 

park opening this 

summer. 

While the committee 

has raised 

a portion of the 

funds required to 

date, they have not 

raised enough to 

match or exceed 

the contribution 

set aside by the 

town. 

The committee 

has received 

funding in the 

amount of $2,400 

through the South 

Eastern Alberta 

Community 

Foundation and 

has three grant 

applications submitted 

that they 

will not hear if 

they are successful 

until the 

middle of June at 

the earliest. 

If successful, 

these funds will 

be used against

AGRICULTURE 

Woman of strong faith 

Lydia Olga Smith was born Nov. 4, 

1927 in Southey, Sask., the third child 

of five to Gottlieb and Olga 

Zehner. She worked during the summers 

of Grades 11 and 12 for a family in 

Regina and graduated from Southey 

High School in the 1940’s. 

Upon completing Grade 12, she spent 

two summers at Moose Jaw Normal 

School and the last summer at 

Saskatoon Normal School for teacher 

training. 

Lydia then began her 

teaching career in 

Saskatchewan, working in 

several towns including 

Renown, Holdfast, Wynyard 

and Weyburn, followed by 

teaching positions in Port 

Alberni and McBride, 

BC. Lydia later moved to 

High Prairie, Alta. where 

she met John Buchanan 

Smith, whom she married in 

Smith 

Edmonton on April 17, 1952. They then 

moved to Tomahawk, Alta. where John 

taught for a year. After that they settled 

in Veteran, Alta. and on their farm 

north of Veteran. 

Following a house fire on the farm, 

the family moved to Castor, Alta. 

where their seven children were 

raised. 

Lydia was a long-time resident of 

Castor, remaining there until her 

passing on April 19, 2021 at the age of 

93 years. 

OBITUARY 

Lydia was a woman of strong faith 

and regularly attended St. John 

Lutheran Church in Castor until it 

closed. 

Afterwards, she attended the 

Missionary Church where she loved 

the friends she made and the music 

they shared. 

Lydia was predeceased by her parents 

Gottlieb and Olga Zehner, sisters 

Dorothy Ertman and Martha Nielsen, 

brother Chris Zehner, husband 

John Smith, and son 

John Frederick Smith. 

She is survived by her sister 

Ella Pedersen, daughters 

Mary (George) Tremper, 

Martha (Warren) Mitchell, 

Susan (Dorian) Sylvestre, 

Linda Smith, sons Ken 

(Zuzana) Smith and Tim 

(Tammy) Smith, grandchildren, 

numerous nieces and 

nephews. 

Funeral services were held on Mon. 

April 26, 2021 at 2 p.m. in Parkview 

Funeral Chapels, Castor, Alta. followed 

by the interment in the Castor 

Municipal Cemetery where Lydia was 

laid to rest beside her husband John. 

Memorial contributions may be 

made in Lydia’s memory to the 

Paintearth Lodge, the Alberta Heart & 

Stroke Foundation or to a charity of 

the donor’s choice. Condolences may be 

left for the family by visiting 

www.parkviewfuneralchapels.com. 

Late penalties staggered 

Cont’d from Pg 1 

Nolls stated his reasoning was that 

gathering restrictions could still be in 

place for much of the summer and 

businesses have to follow the 15 per 

cent maximum occupancy rule, which 

limits the amount of revenue they can 

generate. 

Nolls stated if the property tax 

deadline is pushed back into October, 

occupancy restrictions should, in 

theory, be mostly lifted before then, 

allowing businesses more cash flow 

and a better 

ability to pay 

their property 

taxes. 

Councillors 

seemed to agree 

with the mayor’s 

suggestion but 

also agreed this 

would only be for 

2021, and next 

year all deadlines 

would 

return to normal. 

Switenky 

noted no resolution 

was 

necessary from 

council as staff 

would bring back 

the 2021 tax bylaw to the next meeting 

based on the elements council had 

agreed on. 3” wide version

Dave Price inducted into Agriculture Hall of Fame 

Terri Huxley 


With over 50 years experience 

in the agricultural 

field, Dave Price of Kneehill 

County near Acme, Alta. 

has been inducted into the 

Alberta Agriculture Hall of 

Fame. 

Price has been an innovator 

and visionary in 

swine genetics, production, 

processing and marketing 

for more than 50 years in 

this county as well as provincially, 

nationally and 

even internationally. 

When asked how he felt 

when receiving the award, 

he said “It was a surprise. I 

didn’t know the nominators 

were doing this kind of work 

about it at all and in fact 

when I got the letter from 

the Minister [of Agriculture] 

I had to read it twice 

because I thought it must 

have been for somebody 

else.” 

He added that family and 

teamwork has always been 

key to making anything 

possible. 

“The big thing to recognize 

too is there aren’t many 

things that individuals can 

accomplish – it’s almost 

always a team effort and 

there are people that I was 

really fortunate to have the 

opportunity to work with 

and learn from over many 

different areas in time. 

“I hope people recognize 

their part in that and they 

take that as some credit for 

themselves too.” 

Both his parents and 

grandparents were farmers 

which Price was born into, 

giving him the experience of 

the farm life growing up on 

a mixed operation. 

“The genetics business 

and looking for ways to 

improve products that other 

farmers could use was kind 

of in our blood,” he said. 

Although Price is not 

involved in the day to day 

operations of Sunterra any 

longer, he still has a senior 

position on its board of 

directors.

on some piglets 

during his time 

working at the ground 

level at Sunterra in 

2003. Price now solely 

sits on the board of 

directors.

Dave Price 

He also helps his son on 

the cropping side of things. 

Price was a school trustee 

for the area becoming the 

chair for the board for seven 

years as well as time spent 

in health care improvements 

with Greg’s Wings 

Projects Ltd. 

Dave is not the first of the 

Sunterra family to be recognized 

with this honour; he 

joins his dad, Stan Price, 

who was inducted to the 

Alberta Agriculture Hall of 

Fame in 2002. 

Price and four others – 

two of which were parents 

Flo and Stan – were 

approached by a European 

company to start Pig 

Improvement Canada 

Unlimited (PIC) now known 

as Sunterra Meats, specializing 

in creating an 

increased standard for pork 

producers worldwide beginning 

in the 1970s. 

“Our primary market was 

the Canadian market and it 

was at a time when the pig 

breeding and genetics business 

and even the 

production of pork changed 

from being one part of a 

mixed farming operation 

into being more specialized 

and focused on meat quality 

and health and 

performance. 

Many know of Trochu’s 

Sunterra Meat processing 

plant where local and international 

markets provide 

high-quality products. This 

was purchased in 1989 from 

a group of farmers. 

“The Canadian pork 

industry rapidly changed 

through a number of different 

factors and really 

became world class before 

the rest of the world figured 

out the ingredients and took 

advantage of what others 

had learned from the original 

company in England 

and what we were doing 

here in Canada. It’s been a 

big change,” he said. 

Today, the company has 

also established Soleterra 

d’Italia just outside of Acme 

which creates cooked and 

cured meats and Sunterra 

has eight retail locations across 

Alberta. 

Kneehill County council welcomed 

Price as a delegation to 

congratulate and recognize him 

on his induction on Tues. April 13. 

Every two years, Alberta’s 

Agriculture Hall of Fame recognizes 

up to three individuals 

whose outstanding leadership, 

innovation and business practices 

have advanced Alberta’s agriculture 

and food industry at the 

provincial level or beyond.
