ECA Review 19B-22B 

Reading the newspaper is a 

greener choice than you think. 

We in the newspaper industry are committed to reducing our impact on the environment. 

We take our responsibility seriously, and our production processes are now more energy-efficient and 

environmentally friendly. 

We recognize the importance of preserving and protecting Canada’s forests, and we only use 

newsprint from responsible producers that embrace five widely accepted sustainability principles in 

their forests operations. For Canadians this means that the forest industry plants more trees than it 

takes and it has successfully reduced gas emissions by 10 times what is required under Kyoto. 

And then, of course, there are your efforts. You’ve helped make newspapers a recycling success story 

by recycling over 80 per cent of all newsprint in Canada. 

72 pt 

Thank you for your waste reduction efforts. 

Because sustainability isn’t just another story to us. 

It’s how we’re shaping our future.

Ampko Electric: Supporting community programming 

Ampko Electric, based in Stettler, 

Alta. is currently a second-generation 

business with owner Kirk 

Blake, spending many years 

learning the tricks of the trade from 

his father Owen. 

The company prides itself on 

being able to give back to the community 

that has supported it for so 

long.

“Bar Harbour Camp, Heartland 

Youth Centre and youth sport programs 

are things 

we strive to support 

consistently but 

there are countless 

other causes we 

have given to over 

the years,” said 

Blake. 

As for education, 

Kirk does not fall 

short having 

worked in the electrical 

field since 

1994. 

He received his Journeyman 

Electrician/Red Seal Certification 

in 2005, Electrical Masters 

Certification in 2009, Professional 

Electrical Contractor designation in 

2012, and completed an Alberta Blue 

Seal (Competencies in Business) in 

2013.

focusing on construction, renovations, 

upgrades, service and 

maintenance as well as being the 

authorised area dealer for Kohler 

Generators. 

“I think our commitment to comprehensive 

upfront pricing is what 

sets us apart. We’d rather bid every 

aspect of a job to a worst-case scenario 

and not get the job than bid 

low and have an unhappy customer 

that didn’t get what they 

wanted from our interaction 

or was shocked 

by the cost. Many, many 

times our final invoice 

is below the quoted 

amount,” said Blake. 

“We have had a wonderful 

relationship with 

East Central Alberta for 

40 years and hope to 

continue that for many 

years to come.”

Castor Value Drug Mart 

experiences evolution 

The Castor Value Drug Mart, currently 

run by Randy Kary, his wife 

and daughter, has been around since 

1917, providing quality service in a 

number of areas. 

The Kary’s purchased the business 

from Mike Bain Jr. in 2008 and 

have lived in Castor since 1991. 

They currently have up to 11 full 

time and part time staff as well as 

the occasional summer student who 

seeks mentorship or other 

experience. 

Two staff are pharmacists, both 

with a history of living in the area. 

“We’ve continued the 

business and remained 

viable and remained 

busy,” said Kary. 

Randy is the owner of 

the operation but he has a strong 

background in pharmacy education. 

He graduated from the University 

of Alberta with a Bachelor of Science 

in Pharmacy. Once out of school, he 

worked at the Castor Value Drug 

Mart under the previous owners. 

He is now the head pharmacist at 

the Drug Mart as well as owner. 

Randy’s wife, takes care of miscellaneous 

jobs as co-owner, while his 

daughter Nicole is the storefront 

manager. 

Since taking ownership, Randy 

has noticed a few changes 

5106 50 Ave, Castor, AB • (403) 882-3055 

surrounding the business, all the 

better to reflect the population he 

serves. 

What used to be the standard 

filling of prescriptions and customer 

education has evolved into blister 

pack units and safe injection spaces 

for vaccines. 

“We do all kinds of injections, vaccinations, 

and that kind of stuff 

including the flu vaccine,” said 

Randy. 

Castor Value Drug Mart also 

caters to the local lodge that houses 

roughly 50 people by providing 

upfront service to 

those that require 

more help. 

They supply medications 

for them as well. 

Pharmasave Clive more than just a pharmacy 


Pharmasave Clive, a busy little pharmacy 

located in the heart of downtown 

Clive, has more than helped fill the gap of 

health care services in the area. 

Owned by prescribing pharmacists, 

Mehul Patel and Ketul Patel, Pharmasave 

Clive opened its doors in Feb. 2021 after 

the men recognized the need for such a 

service in the area. 

It is a move that has proved to be mutually 

beneficial to community, and the 

business continues to thrive. In fact, two 

additional local jobs were created. 

“Everyone has been so 

warm and welcoming,” 

Mehul said. “In the one 

and a half years we have 

been open we could not 

be happier with the support 

of the whole 

a smaller community, he chose Clive 

just because there was an accessible 

healthcare professional available in the 

community. 

At Pharmasave Clive, Mehul is 

authorized to write prescriptions for a 

Clive 

minor ailment or administer vaccines 

and injections. 

“I am also able to refer patients to 

physicians or virtual doctors when I 

can’t assess them. I act as a liaison 

between the patient and the doctor and 

help fill in the gaps in health care.” 

Mehul explained that setting up a 

patient with a virtual doctor is a great 

option for people who may not be able to 

physically meet with their physician or 

do not have a family physician. 

of your own home. It’s a good option,” he 

said. Mehul explained that by using the 

video call feature on your phone you 

can show signs of visible physical ailments 

to the online doctor. 

Online doctors can prescribe medications 

such as antibiotics, medicated 

creams, eye, and ear drops and renew 

your regular medications. 

Helping Mehul at the pharmacy is 

Jessica Schmidt, a pharmacy assistant. 

“Her role is equally important,” said 

Patel. “We are a team, and we work 

together to make sure everyone’s needs 

are being met.” 

Pharmasave Clive is open Monday to 

Friday 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. and Sundays 10 

a.m. – 2 p.m. We are also in Mirror 

every Wednesday 10am to 12pm 

The pharmacy carries a full stock of 

over-the-counter items including toiletry 

items, cough and cold medication, 

vitamins, pain relief medication, home 

cleaning items, M&M frozen foods, 

gifts, online shopping and much more.

LEGACY 

DRILLING 

LTD. 

Trusted to do a good job 

Jeff Southworth got into the water 

well drilling business 21 years ago. At 

first it was simply because he needed a 

job, but then he discovered that this was 

work that he really enjoyed doing. 

Jeff worked for Lousana Water Wells 

for 17 years. In the spring of 2019 bought 

Legacy Water Well Drilling based in 

Hanna, Alberta and moved the office to 

Delburne. He now services the large 

area of east central Alberta from Rocky 

Mountain House to the Saskatchewan 

border. 

Legacy Drilling Ltd. will drill a new 

well for you or fix and repair pumps and 

wells. “If I can't fix it then it is probably 

a major problem that can't be fixed,” 

said Jeff. 

Being the business owner can be a 

real challenge but it has renewed his 

passion for the job. 

He gets real pleasure seeing that 

water come up out of the ground. It 

makes him feel good to know that the 

well he drilled is going to help a farmer 

get water to his livestock. 

His customers quickly see that he can 

be trusted to do a good job and most 

become good friends.

Lougheed has something to offer in all seasons 

Incorporated in 1911, the Village was named 

after the late Senator James Lougheed, grandfather 

to former Premier Peter Lougheed. 

“The Friendly Village”, with a population of 

almost 300, located along Hwy 13 and on the 

Canadian Pacific Railway, is an hour’s drive east 

of Camrose, and two hours southeast of 

Edmonton. 

Lougheed’s trading area has a diversified economic 

base, with traditional roots in both 

agriculture and the oilfield industry, and has 

promise for future growth and prosperity. 

Lougheed is home to both commercial and industrial 

business, providing products and services to 

the community and area, including a grocery 

store, banking, Diamond J Bakery, costume 

rental, machinery dealerships, agri-retail business, 

and water well drilling. Lougheed has a 

liquor store backside of the grocery store called - 

Tippy’s Liquor Store, a new restaurant - Ma N Pa’s 

Family Restaurant and Cold Treats. The Lougheed 

Seed Cleaning Plant has built a new modernized 

facility, opening in 2017 and greatly adding to the 

northern horizon of the village. 

Lougheed Ag Society will be celebrating its 

100th Fair on August 12, 2023. The Royal Canadian 

Legion Branch in Lougheed is named in remembrance 

of Victoria Cross recipient, C.J. Kinross . 

Private Kinross’s citation shows that “throughout 

the day he showed marvelous coolness and 

courage, fighting with the utmost aggressiveness 

against heavy odds until he was seriously 

wounded.” Private Kinross single-handedly 

knocked out a machine gun crew. 

The Legion Hall’s “Wall of Honour” proudly 

displays the framed photos and biographies 

of over 60 Veterans from the Lougheed area, 

including Victoria Cross recipient C.J. 

Kinross, immortalizing those who participated 

in the World Wars. The Wall of Honour 

is a unique and cherished statement to the 

pride of this community and the honour 

bestowed for our military residents. 

If you are in the area, make sure to stop in 

and enjoy the food and warm hospitality. For 

residents and visitors alike, the Village has 

something to offer in all seasons. Spring, 

summer and fall, you will find two campgrounds 

and picnic locations, trout pond, 

model aircraft field, museum, four regulation 

baseball diamonds, a walking trail and an 

annual Agricultural Fair held in August. 

During the winter, the “hub of activity” is 

at the Lougheed Field House with its 24-hour 

gym and a variety of ongoing activities and 

indoor sports, as well as the curling rink. 

Olympic champion, Kevin Martin started 

his curling career in Lougheed throwing 

rocks many nights after school. 

Lougheed has a very active community life, 

with ample opportunity to participate in the 

Village’s many community service organizations 

and social groups. Bingos, socials and other community 

events are held in the community hall, as 

well as the Seniors’ Centre and Lions’ Den. 

The Community Society hosts an oldfashion 

Christmas every year. On a 

Saturday before Christmas, you can join the 

fun for a tree decorating contest, old fashioned 

games, exhibits, Mrs. Claus has a 

kitchen with goodies and, of course, Santa 

Claus makes an appearance to present the 

children with goodies. 

Within the last few years, Lougheed has 

become home to the largest population of 

‘Mexican Mennonites’ within the Flagstaff 

region. To accommodate this population as 

they deal with their new Canadian home, the 

citizens of Lougheed have initiated events 

and enterprises to ensure a smooth transition 

to their new chosen home. 

Lougheed, “The Friendly Village”, has 

room to grow, with both residential and commercial 

lots available for development.

Delicious cuisine, down home hospitality 


Annie Mae Cummer had not 

much more than a shoestring budget 

and a dream to go on when she 

opened Mae’s Kitchen on Feb. 5, 

2018. 

“I had a dream of opening a 

restaurant and I borrowed $800 from 

my husband, and I went for it,” she 

recalled. 

For Annie Mae, who is not one to 

shy away from a challenge, the 

meagre start up funds combined 

with hard work and excellent business 

sense proved to be all that was 

needed to turn her dream into 

reality. 

Customers who stop by Mae’s 

Kitchen, located in the heart of 

downtown Mirror, can be sure they 

will be treated to a healthy dose of 

old-fashioned hospitality along with 

delicious cuisine. 

“We are a downhome restaurant,” 

said Annie. “We serve good food, not 

fast food. We are all about healthy 

eating and, along with our regular 

meals, we also offer the choice of 

gluten free, dairy free, vegan, and 

vegetarian dishes. 

The 24-seat restaurant is open 

daily serving customers from 

Sunday to Wednesday from 7 a.m. to 

7 p.m. and from Thursday to 

Saturday 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Restaurant 

hours do not change in the winter.

Facebook - Mae’s Kitchen 

Annie, who was the main cook at 

another local restaurant before 

opening her own business and had 

worked in other restaurants previously, 

is a people person who enjoys 

getting to know her customers. 

“Everyone is welcome in our 

restaurant, no matter what their 

beliefs are.” 

Annie is proud and pleased that 

she has hardworking, loyal staff. 

“During COVID, we followed all 

the rules and only had takeout when 

it was required, but not one person 

got laid off and no one missed a 

paycheck.” 

Annie’s husband, Dennis has now 

come on board to help with Mae’s 

Kitchen and a part time cook has 

also been hired. 

Annie and Dennis have lived in 

Mirror for 12 years and love the 

community. 

“We have made our home here 

and we are very happy here,” said 

Annie. 

Solution to your hearing concerns 

Over 4 years ago Maxine started 

out on a grand adventure moving out 

of Calgary to Three Hills and opening 

her first hearing aid office. It’s been 

an incredible journey that just keeps 

getting better with the opening of her 

second office in Hanna. She is splitting 

her time between the two offices 

with Monday, Tuesday and 

Wednesdays in Three Hills and 

Thursday and Fridays in Hanna. 

Maxine began her career in 

Edmonton in 1986. In 1997 she 

accepted a position that brought her 

to Calgary. Her last position was at 

the Calgary Ear Center where she 

worked with a team of specialists providing 

a one stop approach to hearing 

health care offering everything from 

counseling, Tinnitus management, 

hearing aids, to surgical solutions for 

clients. 

Although she found the work 

extremely rewarding she also found 

the pace of an ever growing city a bit 

overwhelming and longed to slow 

things down, which brought her to 

Three Hills. 

The overwhelming response to her 

much needed services has enabled her 

to again expand with the addition of 

another practitioner, Jenny Tullikopf. 

Look for their new location opening in 

Drumheller in January of 2023.

owned and operated hearing clinic in

path on his own life journey. 

“I was tired of the feast and 

famine of the oil patch,” he said. 

In July of 2019, Chris decided to 

take the first step on this new path. 

He purchased the 

Whistle Stop Cafe in 

Mirror, Alberta. 

He re-located from 

Campbell River, BC in 

2000 to rural Alberta 

armed with hope, a 

dream, and a vision for 

the future. He also carried 

with him the 

optimism that with 

hard work and determination 

he could make 

his dream come true. 

There is no doubt 

that hard work and 

determination were 

constant denominators 

in Chris’s life, and 

under the new ownership, 

the Whistle Stop 

Cafe flourished. 

Later, Chris’s sister, 

Melodie and her family 

moved to Alberta to 

help with the growing 

business. 

Located at the junction 

of highways 21 and 

50, the cafe became a 

popular destination for 

customers looking for a 

delicious home cooked 

meal or simply wanting the chance 

to enjoy a savory cup of coffee and a 

scrumptious piece of pie. 

Accustomed to demanding work 

and long hours, Chris not only kept 

his cafe open almost 24 hours daily, 

he expanded the RV park beside the 

cafe lo include nine fully serviced 

camping stalls and 15 unserviced 

sites while continuing to offer food, 

fuel and camping specials. 

And, finally, as a way to help 

people through the covid restrictions, 

he built a drive-in movie 

theatre with the space to accommodate 

about two hundred cars. 

“It proved to be hugely popular, he 

said. ·we have had nearly 500 people 

Home cooked meals, convenience, fuel, 

propane exchange, RV Park 

Junction Highways 21 & 50 (Truck Stop), Mirror, AB 

Open 6:30am-9pm daily 

403.788.2221 

here just for movie nights!” 

Chris’s hard work, determination 

and zeal was really beginning to pay 

off for the young businessman, when 

COVID hit and the government-imposed 

restrictions on indoor dining 

came into place. 

The new restrictions shell 

shocked the entire country and 

Chris was no exception. 

Suddenly, he was faced with challenges 

that he would never, even in 

his wildest imagination, have predicted. 

But, sometimes, ii is these 

kinds of obstacles that cause an individual 

to defy the odds and fight for 

what they believe in. 

And that’s exactly what Chris did. 

And in the process, the 

business became less 

about dollars and cents 

and more about hope, 

freedom, and values 

not only for himself, 

but for many people 

who were dealing with 

their own struggles. 

“In the beginning it 

(The Whistle Stop) was 

an investment, but it 

became something so 

much more than that. 

“It really became a 

symbol of hope.” 

Even as he faced 

legal action and closures, 

he continued to 

defy rules and regulations 

surrounding 

COVID and fought to 

stay open. 

Although reviews 

were mixed, the core 

support for his business 

and what he stood 

for never waivered. It 

was during these turbulent 

times that he 

realized that the cafe 

was more than just a 

place for people to slop 

and grab a burger. 

“It was something to believe in. A 

place to come and be yourself. A 

refuge, really.” 

We have had people from B.C., 

Saskatchewan, Ontario, from all 

corners of Canada, and even from 

overseas here.”


Traveling 2022 and beyond 

Cathy Wiechnik CTC (Certified Travel 

Counselor) owns and operates XCURSIONS, a full 

service, accredited and licensed travel agency 

based in Consort, Alberta. The XCURSIONS team 

includes travel professionals operating out of 

Consort, Lethbridge and Calgary. 

With the world close to the end of the 

COVID-19 Pandemic, borders have opened up, 

restrictions have lifted, and travelers are once 

again free to embark on those journeys that were 

put on hold. While travel is recovering, and most 

things are getting “back to normal”, lessons the 

industry has learned over the past two and a half 

years have produced changes to how we explore 

our world. Never before has the expertise of an 

experienced travel professional been more 

essential. 

Over the past year, Wiechnik has traveled 

extensively, including trips to Mexico, Jamaica, 

San Francisco, Tahiti, Switzerland, Germany, 

France and The Netherlands. While the airports, 

particularly here in Canada, struggled to catch up 

with the tsunami of travelers early on, the reality 

is while things are definitely busy in these 

airports, they are improving daily, and most 

travelers are getting from A to B without 

difficulties. These first hand experiences have 

enabled Wiechnik to advise her clients on what 

to expect now, and as travel continues to 

rebound. 

More than ever before, travel professionals 

are finding their clients are adding “Bucket List” 

adventures to their annual travel plans. While 

trips like a week in sun destinations are still 

booking quickly, many have decided the time is 

NOW to take that Safari to Kenya, or extended 

trip through Italy, or river cruise through Egypt, 

or expedition cruise to the South Pole, or… This 

trend is not only Canadian, it is worldwide, so 

Wiechnik and her colleagues are urging their 

clients to contact them as soon as possible when 

they are ready to book these 

once in a lifetime itineraries. 

Space is limited. And, those 

days of “sell offs” are long 

gone -- the closer you book to 

your departure date, the higher 

the prices. 

Even before the pandemic, 

advisors including Wiechnik Cathy Wiechnik CTC 

Page 19B 

have always recommended the purchase of 

travel insurance. The unexpected always looms 

over every trip, no matter how well planned, so 

protecting yourself and your investment is 

crucial. XCURSIONS offers Manulife Travel 

Insurance, and includes insurance options with 

every itinerary. 

Over the next two years, XCURSIONS will be 

offering some exclusive trips. These are private 

small group journeys, and will include: 

* “Walking in Burgundy 6 day tour, followed by 

three days and nights in the City of Lights” 

*“Ireland and Scotland” 

*”Italy by Land and Sea”
