Bull-A-Rama - a stomping success

Michelle Pinon Editor

While the bulls may have stole the spotlight from the riders Saturday night, the Lamont Bull-A-Rama Supreme was still highly entertaining for the sold out crowd. “There were only five complete rides,” said organizing committee chair Aaron Wick, but there were two riders who did manage to hold on for eight seconds to earn some valuable prize money. Those two cowboys were Neal Wallator of Drayton Valley, who won in the Long Go Round, and Branden Dillman of Rocky Mountain House, who won in the Short Go Round. Hometown favourite Eddie Shepel made a return appearance at Bull-A-Rama, but couldn’t hang on despite getting a re-ride during the Long Go Round. Nick Olsen, who hails from Ryley had several rerides throughout the competition, but just couldn’t manage to put up a score even though he came close a couple of times. It was hard luck for 25 of the 30 cowboys that night, but there’s a good chance many of them will be back next year to try their luck again. Bull-A-Rama featured bull riders from Caroline, St. Albert, Niton Junction, Westerose, and Millet, AB. There was representation from Meadow Lake Saskatchewan, and from as far away as Australia, Mexico and Paraguay. Everything went smoothly both inside and outside of the ring, and Wick is always relieved when there are no injuries to report. There were “no hiccups” during Bull-A-Rama, and it’s always amazing to watch how quickly and cohesively things run with the volunteers of the Lamont and District Agricultural Society. But after 21 years, Wick isn’t surprised, and credits other members with helping to make everything run smoothly and seamlessly. Over the past 15 years the Lamont and District Agricultural Society has donated over $400,000 towards community groups and projects. April 26 was no exception as the society donated $2,000 to the Haying in the 30’s cancer support society. “We strive to support local groups in their endeavours and put monies back into the community to make a difference. This year we choose Haying in the 30’s, stated Bonnie Chudyk, who introduced Wick and Ken Hewko, who accepted the donation on behalf of the St. Michael and District Agricultural Society. Scholarships were also presented to two students in memory of treasured past members of the ag. society. The Dennis Stadnick Scholarhsip was awarded to Taylor Cardinal, who is an active volunteer of the ag. society and great asset to the community. The Bert and Isabelle Doige scholarship was awarded to Brent Stach for his commitment to his community and his strong 4-H background.

Capital Region Board Road Show rolls into Bruderheim Town council gets opportunity to gain and provide input to group leaders Michelle Pinon Editor

The Capital Region Board (CRB) Road Show rolled into Bruderheim April 16. CRB Chair Nolan Crouse, chief executive officer Doug Lagore, and communications manager Loreen Lennon were on hand to introduce themselves to council members and tell them about the CRB and its mandate. Lagore said it was more of an informal meet and greet than a formal presentation just to let elected officials know “who we are and what we do” as well as give them an overview about what they plan to accomplish over the next four years. Bruderheim was the fifth stop on the tour that will be visiting a total of 24 member municipalities over the next few months. Lagore said the response to the road tour has been very positive to date, and they are looking forward to future visits in the region. The questions members of town council asked involved land use and development. The first question was whether the CRB can deal with encroachment of development on prime agricultural land? Crouse responded that it is a difficult and complex situation; and that it certainly is not the CRB’s

place to tell any farmer what to do with his land. The other question was if there were restrictions to municipal population growth? Crouse said that that was a “myth” they had heard elsewhere, but something that must be put to rest. Crouse also voiced his appreciation to the town for the opportunity to attend the meeting. “We learn so much on these local visits to CRB member communities. We get to experience the richness of the diversity of the Capital Region where we all play a part in its successful future.”

The CRB’s current activities and initiatives include: strategic planning, enhanced communications and stakeholder outreach. Currently, the CRB is formulating a shared vision to invigorate the CRB tagline, Regional Action, Global Opportunity for the continued prosperity and possibilities of the capital region looking toward 2065 and how to get there. The CRB has introduced the reCAP newsletter as a direct, regular form of communication for all members;

updating of the website in 2014, and the CRB Road Show to engage members in their communities. The CRB has also introduced a stakeholder outreach campaign to

meet directly with critical stakeholders, which include: the Greater Edmonton Region Chambers of Commerce, the Greater Edmonton Economic Development Team, the Capital Region

Caucus as well as the new Premier, Cabinet, MLAs, key ministries and administration within the Government of Alberta and other regional interest groups.

Upcoming information session a great learning opportunity Michelle Pinon Editor

Local residents will have the opportunity to learn more about what is happening in the Heartland during an upcoming information session on May 7 at the Bruderheim Memorial Centre. The event, hosted by Life in the Heartland will focus on industry news, and have updates supplied by representatives with the Fort Air Partnership, Canexus, MEG Energy, Pembina Pipeline Corporation and Shell. Jim Newman, economic development manager with Lamont County, will serve as Master of Ceremonies, and offer greetings to participants. Following the presentations, audience members will be able to talk to company representatives one-on-one at their booths. Newman says the information session is open to anybody, and hopes to see the hall packed with residents from all corners of Lamont County in attendance. “We’re really happy that it’s happening in Lamont County and that we’re co-hosting with the Town of Bruderheim.” Newman went on to say, “Life in the Heartland is our communication information program to all that happens in and around the Heartland.” Newman sees it as a great opportunity for residents to ask questions, gather information or voice concerns. He also sees it as an opportunity for youth in the community to investigate possible careers so they will be able to stay, live and prosper in Lamont County and its communities. Bruderheim Mayor Karl Hauch said the event has never been hosted in the community before, and looking for-

ward to it. “Great opportunity for folks in our town and region to come out and hear directly from companies and organizations in our greater region. Great opportunity for Life in the Heartland to recognize that our town and region play an important part of the Industrial Heartland.” Life in the Heartland began more than five years ago, and is a collaboration between Alberta’s Industrial Heartland Association, Alberta’s Industrial Heartland Land Trust Society, Northeast Capital Industrial Association and Northeast Region CAER. Vanessa Goodman, chair of Life in the Heartland says the collaboration began because there was a lot of information available, but residents didn’t know where to go for it. “Collaborating under the Life in the Heartland banner created an easier to remember avenue for residents to seek information. It also allows our organizations to piggy back off one another when it comes to information and resource sharing.” The information evening began in the fall of 2011 with about 40 people in attendance. “They’ve since grown in size and popularity with

Local residents will have the opportunity to hear firsthand about industrial developments in the Heartland during the May 7 meeting in Bruderheim. 150 plus people attending the one last fall in Redwater.” Goodman said they continue to receive positive feedback from community members who appreciate engaging face to face with so many companies and organizations over the course of the evening. “We’ve also heard positive feedback from industry and the nonprofits that attend as a way of connecting with each other. We hold these community information evening twice per year, alternating either side of the North Saskatchewan River. (Sturgeon in the fall and a community on the eastern side in the spring.)” Results from a recent Life in the Heartland survey have also been very insightful to the organization. “Communicating effectively with the local community requires

understanding and engaging with our audience.” Over 175 people responded to the survey, and more than 80 per cent said they had heard of Life in the Heartland, and nearly 90 per cent rely on local newspapers to stay informed about industrial activity in the region. The top three topics of interest to people were: air quality, water quality and transportation. In regards to safety and emergency response, over 61 per cent of respondents rated it as either excellent or well managed. Industrial development ranked second (over 57 per cent) and transportation received the lowest grade with over 38 per cent rating it poorly managed. “These results will help guide the planning efforts of Life in the

Heartland, as our partner organizations continue working together on communication opportu-

nities with local residents and stakeholders,” stated Goodman.

Opinion Obesity concerns The Dietitians of Canada and the Canadian Public Health Association are disturbed by the conclusions and recommendations outlined in the Fraser Institute report released April 28, 2014. The report’s interpretation of health and economic data could lead to confusion among both policy-makers and the public. “It’s potentially misleading to suggest that the current situation is Canada lacks a disconcerting trend or is exaggerated. Rates of obesity in Canada increased dramatically in the two decades before the time period examined in this report. Comparison of measured data in 1978/79 versus 2004 showed that rates of obesity in Canada had tripled among adolescents and nearly doubled among adults. So a slowing down in this rate of increase is hopeful, but not a sign that there is no longer a problem,” says Maria Ricupero, Registered Dietitian and Spokesperson for Dietitians of Canada. “It is critical to continue work to prevent the development of expensive, high-risk health complications resulting from obesity. Chronic diseases associated with obesity can lead to lower productivity and negatively impact quality of life.” “There have been many public health efforts over the past decade to prevent childhood obesity, and we have seen positive impacts, but this does not mean it is time to pull back,” explains Kim Raine, Registered Dietitian, and Professor at the School of Public Health at University of Alberta. “Prevention is a long-term investment, requiring support from government and the private sector and increases in calorie intakes happened over a time period of some 25 years. Collectively, we need time to evaluate the impact of programs and policies over the long term, to stop further increases in obesity rates and to address this concerning problem in Canada.” Where there is agreement with the Institute’s report is that current government policies fail to address the many complex causes of obesity or overweight. “Governments’ failure to take a health-in-all-policies approach addressing the psychological and socioeconomic factors such as culture, family life and structure, and income is an important limitation of current initiatives,”said Ian Culbert, Executive Director of the Canadian Public Health Association. “Public health activities represent a very small proportion of health budgets in Canada and less than 5% of total health care costs. The effectiveness of government interventions needs to be studied with respect to all strategies, including government spending to alleviate poverty and the many social factors that add to the burden of disease.” Bottom line from DC and CPHA to government: Rates of obesity and risk to health continues to be high in Canada; prevention efforts with government support should be continued and properly evaluated to make sensible policy decisions and maximize potential return on investment.

Fair Elections Act Denounced in Fairness to Canadian Democracy I believe that the so called “Fair Elections Act” is extremely unfair to Canadians. It contains sweeping changes to Canada’s election rules that would seriously damage the fairness and transparency of federal elections and diminish Canadians’ political participation. The past few weeks have seen the bill denounced as a threat to democracy by the chief electoral officer, the former chief electoral officer, several provincial elections officials, hundreds of domestic and foreign academic experts and citizens of all political stripes across our

Kerry Anderson Publisher

country. I understand that the Conservatives did announce a few days ago that there would be some changes to the proposed bill. And yet Stephen Harper is still expected to ram Bill C23 through the House of Commons on May 1 in spite of remaining serious concerns. I am most concerned about the following: • The revised bill still does nothing to give Elections Canada the power to compel testimony, a power it has repeatedly asked for in order to investigate instances of major fraud such as the Conservative

Michelle Pinon Editor

robocall scandal in the last federal election. • E l e c t i o n s Canada is banned from encouraging people to vote or trying to increase voter turn-out. This means for example that the Student Vote program which is a parallel mock election held in schools across Canada to increase political knowledge and interest in students, may cease to exist. • The Bill proposes to dispense with the use of Voter Information Cards (VICs) as a piece of identification that voters can use (in tandem with another piece of officially recognized ID) to prove their identity

and address. The use of voter cards is especially important for Canadians who lack ID that proves their current address, such as students, senior citizens in long-term care facilities, First Nations citizens, and those who have recently moved. The elimination of VICs as a valid form of ID in federal elections would deny many legitimate voters their right to vote. Would you label this elections act “fair” or “unfair”? Would you denounce it?

Archers overcome challenges to finish strong in competition Michelle Pinon Editor

“We went through all four seasons on the way,” said Clay Laronde, commenting on the memorable seven hour trip to Lethbridge for the Indoor 3D Nationals April 18-20. Brooke Benson and Tatianna Pichota and Laronde, all members of the Lamont Fish and Game Association youth group competed in the event which featured more than 200 shooters. “We did really, really well,” said Murray Laronde, who, along with Vince Pichota, helped coach the youth. They say the facility was the largest they had ever been in, and featured four separate courses. Getting accustomed to the courses, large crowd and nerves were just some of the challenges they faced during the exciting competition. “It was scary, and on the line it was very, very quiet,” said Pichota. “I couldn’t stop smiling. I

was so nervous!” But despite her nerves, nineyear-old Pichota, persevered and earned a bronze medal. Laronde said it was very loud when he was shooting, which threw him off his game. But he found various ways to adapt and managed to place fifth. Laronde, 12, broke two arrows, overcame low scores, and managed to pull it together in the last rounds to place a respectable fourth. Overall, “It was an amazing experience.” Brooke Benson gave it her all to finish in 5th spot. She said she was pretty happy with the results. Benson added that it was cool to be able to have had such an experience, and was able to pick up a lot of tips and new ideas during the event. So all in all, the local archers gained valuable knowledge and experience, and will be able to put that to the test when they compete in the future.

From Where I Sit: In The Know

By Hazel Anaka I don’t know about you but I hate to be the last to know. Let me qualify that. I don’t nec-

essarily care about what is trending on Twitter because anyone who’s awake and aware of her surroundings could figure that out based on general media (print, radio, TV) buzz. That is, after all how people got the scoop for ages after the smoke signal thing became passÈ. I manage a Twitter account for the big event I’m coordinating, Babas and Borshch Ukrainian Festival, so I could get into the habit of checking the trends list. That would up my ëconnectedness quotient.” Catching the odd episode of The Social also keeps me in the

know about lifestyle issues that may be affecting my kids’ lives more so than my own. FYI: Our Canadian equivalent of The View is so much smarter, hipper, nicer——well except for Lainey, perhaps: she revels in her mean girl vibe. But I digress. What got me thinking about being in the know was a trip to the Davids Tea store in West Edmonton Mall. I first became aware of the company at Christmas when my mom got a sampler gift pack from someone. Then I saw the beautiful ceramic mug, stainless steel diffuser and lid they sell when I sampled some very nice

tea at Greg and Carrie’s. To learn my son drinks tea from his very own mug should have been a clue. So when did tea drinking go from something mock-worthy that little old ladies did to something young hipsters do? Beats me. But popular it is. That store was hopping.

Waterline agreement to expire Michelle Pinon Editor

Sometime in the next month or two, elected officials with the Village of Andrew and Lamont County will be sitting down to discuss the Andrew Water Line Agreement. Division 4 Councillor Roy Anaka made the motion for administration to set up a joint meeting at the April 8th meeting. According to a Request for Decision (RFD) from chief administrative officer Al Harvey, the Andrew Water Line Agreement was signed on July 15, 1994. The 20 year agreement is set to expire on that date. Harvey recommended to council that Reeve Wayne Woldanski send a letter to the Village of Andrew inviting them to a joint meeting to review the water line agreement, and to inform them of the intent of council to permit the existing agreement to expire, and replace it with a fee for service agreement. In Harvey’s RFD he stated the agreement was brought to council’s attention once before related to water volume issues in Andrew, and a review of the pumping location in Hilliard. “Although we have no written confirmation, I have discussed the line’s life with two engineers,

and they have both indicated that in their initial thoughts there is ‘lots of life’ left in the line.” Harvey informed council that the county owns the water line, but there was no information on possible rates and fees that would be charged from one municipality to the other. Pat Skoreyko, chief administrative officer for

the Village of Andrew, said she was aware that the agreement will be expiring, but the agreement has not been formally discussed by members of council as of yet. Heather Tait, Mayor of the Village of Andrew, stated that “At this time, a statement is pending more information.”

lined with large canisters of loose tea. The bright coloured labels separate the teas into types: white, green, oolong, black, pu’erh, matÈ, rooibos, and herbal. According to their website there are more than 150 types. The staff is knowledgeable about the makeup of the specific blends and their health benefits. And health is what brought me there in the first place. I was exploring Dr. Oz’s website and found a piece promising that drinking tea can whittle down one’s waist size. No exerciseinduced sweating required. My short shop-

ping list included a white tea, an oolong and yerba matÈ. Eighty-seven dollars and a crash course in teas later I was heading out of the store with my beautiful turquoise bag of treasures. And you thought Tiffany’s blue box was special. Hah. That bought me a mug set, four tins of one hundred gram batches of tea I chose (based on sniffing and ingredient lists), a gift with purchase called Forever Nuts that smells good enough to eat, and a full colour tea menu. Just a few weeks in, my waist is the same but my hip-ness is trending, from where I sit.

SCHOOL BUS DRIVER APPRECIATION DAY – MAY 5 Join us in thanking and celebrating all school bus drivers in Elk Island Public Schools. May 5 is a day to recognize and celebrate their unwavering support to education through transportation.

We encourage you to take a moment on May 5 to express your thanks to our drivers for the extraordinary efforts, skills, and contributions they make to education in our communities. School bus drivers carefully transport the most treasured cargo – our children – and for that, we say…

Bruderheim School officially opens playground

MICHELLE PINON PHOTOS

April 25 marked the official grand opening of Bruderheim School’s new playground. Jasmine Strickland cut the ribbon while fellow students, staff, community members, sponsors as well as education and elected officials. Michelle Pinon Editor

Grade 6 student Jasmine Strickland did the honours of cutting the ribbon to officially open Bruderheim School’s new playground April 25. Students, staff, sponsors and special guests looked on while she spliced the ribbon in half. By her side was Cynthia Willis, head of the Bruderheim School Playground Society, and fellow members Michelle Thompson and Cara Rich. Clarissa Strickland, vice-chair of Bruderheim School student council, thanked parent council members for fundraising and building the playground. She also thanked the sponsors, and fellow students made presentations of thank you cards to the sponsors. Overcast and cool, the weather couldn’t damp-

en the spirits of the students, who looked on with excitement in their eyes during the presentation portion of the ceremony. The were allowed to break out for a few minutes on the fun before heading back inside the school. Even Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville MLA Jacquie Fenske, Bruderheim Mayor Karl Hauch, councillor Patricia Lee, and EIPS A s s o c i a t e Superintendent of Instructional Services Elaine Zimmerman couldn’t resist trying out the equipment once the kids had gone back inside the school. Students, staff and guests enjoyed cake, cookies, juice and coffee in the gymnasium and watched a slide show presentation to cap off the celebration. Mayor Hauch said the playground was a testament to the hard work of Bruderheim Parent

Advisory Council members and the playground society that raised the funds for the project, Principal Sven Danzinger, and the teaching staff. Willis said she couldn’t have done it without her left hand and her right hand, Michelle Thompson and Cara Rich. They, in turn, acknowledged the financial support of Enbridge, Canexus, Town of Bruderheim, Shirgor Enterprises, True North Oilfield, Long Run Exploration, Agrium, and Sil Industries. The community build took place Oct.16-20, 2013; and the society received $12,000 in in kind donations. Plaques with the names of the sponsors were installed on the two benches surrounding the playground, and also unveiled during the grand opening celebration.

Officials with the Town of Bruderheim received a thank you card from the students for helping to sponsor the playground.

Webb’s held its Discount Days in Lamont April 7 - 11 for its valued customers. Randy Trenchuk, second from left, who farms in the Smoky Lake area was the lucky winner of a beautiful New Holland barbecue. General manager Miles Mackow, left, along with employee Amber Cissell presented the barbecue recently. Cissell, was the person who entered Randy into the draw. So I guess it’s steaks all round for her thoughtfulness.
