Bantam C team takes silver in Rimbey Provincial tourney By Treena Mielke

Coach Brent Norstrom of the Rimbey Bantam Cs is proud of his team. “If you can win league, take a silver in Provincials and be the Zone 4 champs, I would say you’ve had a pretty good season,” he said. The Bantams, despite playing several games in Provincials on the weekend, took out Stettler in two straight games to win the league championship, defeating the team in their hometown on Tuesday and again in Rimbey, Wednesday. Wednesday’s game saw the Bantams come back in full force in the third period, scoring three goals to bring the final score to 5-2. “They were pretty tired after the Provincials. They’ve played a lot of hockey in the last few days, but in the third they came on strong with three goals,” said Norstrom. The Bantams were a strong contender in the Provincials, but were edged out by one goal in the final game by rivals Ponoka Moose. It was a good game with both sides battling for the gold medal, but Ponoka with only just over two minutes left, scored the winning goal, making the
final score 2-1. The lone Rimbey goal was scored by Coleton Schafer. “It was a tough loss,” said head coach Brent Norstrom, “but I think they wanted it a little more than we did and they had some revenge to get.” Norstrom said a few Renegades were suffering from minor injuries as well, which didn’t help their chances. On the bright side, the coach said players should be proud of their silver medal. “It was hard on the kids,” he said, “but they should be proud of making it to the final game.” The rivalry between Rimbey Renegades and Ponoka Moose began earlier this month when the Renegades downed the Moose 5-2 in Ponoka, a win which earned them the coveted Zone 4 banner. The first game of the total point series for the banner ended in a 3-3 tie in Rimbey Feb. 25. The Renegades skated and stick handed their way to their gold medal finish by defeating High Prairie 5 – 2 on Friday and Westlock on Saturday. Renegade fans came out in full force to support the hometown team, Norstrom said.
Public budget meeting brings taxpayers’ concerns to forefront By Treena Mielke Discrepancy between the mill rate and the actual tax increase was a hot topic at Thursday’s budget talks. Just over a dozen people filled the council chambers, and only budget related questions were entertained by council and staff. Jim Moore from the Rimbey Ratepayers Association pointed out the mill rate has, in fact, increased by 1.5 per cent, but the total tax bill is much higher. “It’s a bit deceiving to hear it on the news. 1.5 per cent seems like nothing,” said Moore.
Mayor Rick Pankiw said he took full responsibility for the statement, which acting CAO Melissa Beebe clarified as being correct. Beebe said the municipal mill rate is a 1.5 per cent increase, the same as 2013,” she said. “However, the education requisition came in two per cent higher for residential (properties) and jumped three per cent for non residential.” “The municipal mill rate or municipal tax increase is 1.5, which is the same as last year. However, when you add those together, the tax increase will be higher, but it’s not our increase. The municipal portion has gone up 1.5 which

is comparable with the rate of inflation.” Moore told the mayor and council they did know the assessed property value of residents when the budget was created, he said. Later, Beebe said that was correct, but the town has no control over the assessed value of property. “The market value and assessed value is the same thing and it is determined by an independent contracted assessor. Everyone has the right to appeal if they are not happy with their assessment,” she added. Continued on Page 9

The Rimbey Review, March 25, 2014 3
Wildlife Act offence could result in charges The Rimbey RCMP detachment responded to nearly 50 calls for service this week. Highlights of the week include Wildlife Act offences, thefts, drugs, breaching court orders, impaired driving and other serious matters. Impaired driver arrested On March 15, at approximately 1:30 a.m., an officer was patrolling Lockhart Road and observed a southbound vehicle all over the road. The Mountie arrested the 64-year-old driver, a resident of the Rimbey area, for impaired driving and seized his truck after he provided breath samples of over twice the legal limit. Fortunately, in this case, the driver had not been involved in a collision. Better than ‘cops’ show Sunday night in Rimbey resembled a ‘Cops’ episode when an alert Mountie patrolling after midnight attempted to stop a suspicious vehicle in town. The driver of the car, did not stop for the police, and a chase ensued. The very short pursuit ended when the dangerous driver lost control and hit a snow bank. The bandit then attempted to flee from police by backing out of the large snow drift when his back bumper abruptly met with the police car’s front bumper. The driver and passenger in the car tried to run away from the disabled car but were quickly arrested by the officer. The investigation revealed that the dangerous driver and his cohort had meth-
amphetamine in the car and had been consuming illegal drugs earlier that evening. Multiple criminal charges have been laid in this case and the vehicle seized. Help for addiction RCMP in Rimbey are investigating a matter involving a youth involved in illegal drugs and other crime. Police have been monitoring the youth’s court imposed conditions and again arrested the young person for breaching a court order this week. Police will continue to work with partnering agencies to help those who find themselves with an addiction problem. If you or a loved one is struggling, there is help. Please call the Rimbey and District Victim Services Unit for more information at (403) 843-8494. Police were dispatched to a call behind a business where two men were arguing over an unpaid bill. When police arrived on scene, there was not only a verbal disagreement to deal with but a Wildlife Act offence as well. Police observed a white tailed deer carcass wrapped in a tarp laying out in the sun beside an oil spill on the ground. The deer had been tagged by a licensed hunter after it had been shot last November. Charges pending

Further inquiries resulted in the deer being seized by police when witnesses stated the deer had been there for two weeks! RCMP contacted Alberta Fish and Wildlife who have sent the deer to a laboratory for testing to determine if the meat is fit for human consumption, and if not, the hunter will be charged with allowing his deer meat to spoil. Call 911 for impaired drivers On March 18th, at approximately 3: 00 a.m., police were patrolling Highway 20 near Rimbey when a pickup truck was seen driving erratically on the roadway. Police immediately observed signs of impairment and the 24-year-old male, a resident of Red Deer, was arrested and charged for drunk driving. Sadly,
that brings the number of impaired drivers criminally charged by the Rimbey RCMP in the last year to over 50! Please do your part to help us keep the streets and highways safe for all our families and report anyone you suspect is drunk driving. Call 911 immediately, because an impaired driver is an emergency! If you have any information regarding these or any other crimes, please call the local Rimbey RCMP Detachment at (403) 843-2224 or Crime Stoppers: PHONE: 1-800-222-8477 #8477 on Telus Mobility *8477 on Rogers AT&T Crime Stoppers is a community program that does work!

Change in politics and life is inevitable and constant It seems as quickly as Allison Redford marched onto the Alberta political stage, she has marched off of it, leaving Albertans somewhat bewildered and a little perplexed. “What will be the next move on the political chess board?” we ask, “and, even more imporTreena Mielke tantly, “who will make On The Other Side it?” I must admit I heard the news about Redford’s resignation later rather than sooner as I was quite engaged in a much more important event at the time our leader decided to make her surprise announcement. Grandchild number six had suggested (rather strongly) to his mother he was ready to be born. I got the phone call about midnight; a time when puppies and kittens and little children and grandmas such as myself are all safely tucked in bed and sleeping. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes, (sleep in your eyes on the highway in the middle of the night is not a good thing), grabbed my trusty coffee cup and set out for the long, lonely drive to my daughter’s house, arriving somewhat dazed and confused, but ready. For what I was ready, I wasn’t sure, but, I was ready! But, after we all looked at each other, ate some cheese and crackers and talked about nothing, the child decided he was not quite ready to be born after all. He decided, instead to go back to making his mom quite uncomfortable, like moms are supposed to be when they have been with child for almost, but not quite, nine months. Breakfast happened in the morning, just like always. The unborn baby’s oldest brother, who is five and practical, was quite relieved that all had returned to normal. “I hope that baby doesn’t come now,” he grumbled. “We are just having breakfast.” His younger brother, who didn’t realize his days as
being youngest are numbered, said nothing. He just kept eating. The baby’s almost arrival brought me, the grandma, smack dab in the middle of a world filled with toys on the floor, sticky fingerprints on the window, cartoons on the television and, most importantly, two delightful little boys. I was happy; so happy in fact, I almost, but not quite, stayed awake for the whole day. During the time I was awake, I read stories, sang songs, helped build a train track, played a rousing game of Mouse Trap and learned how to climb the ladder to the top bunk. It was a good day, a happy day, but after two pajama clad little boys were tucked safe in their respective beds, I wrapped a Spiderman blanket around myself and collapsed on the couch. I was, I’m sure, in a state of grandma exhaustion, incoherently muttering something about the wheels on the bus, and dreaming of super heroes. Later, when it became apparent no baby would be making an appearance at this time, I knew it was time to go. So I closed the door on the toys and the fingerprints
and the books and the two little boys who have a way of turning my heart to mush just by being who they are and opened the door to my world. And that is how I learned Allison Redford resigned. Her resignation marks the end of a short, rather disastrous term in office which leaves the Progressive Conservatives scrambling to crazy glue their party back together. It is true they have a track record of a majority government that can’t be disputed. But, dissention in the ranks, much of which is a result of Redford’s questionable leadership tactics and a general political unrest leaves one to wonder what will happen next. Will hard front line decisions be tempered with compassion and integrity? Will the leadership role ascertain the traits of dignity and strength combined with common sense and understanding are demonstrated? The best one can hope for is the person who steps into the shoes of leader at least attempts to portray those characteristics. Change is inevitable. Only time will tell how the political changes will unfold. At the very least, it will be interesting!

Over my seventeen in my life at the time. I wondered why these couples years I’ve been put to the test for multiple things.
Love has been one of my biggest obstacles, my reason for that being because with love comes forgiveness, trust and honesty. Many people in my life have been at times unforgivable, or untrustworthy and they lacked honesty which made them hard to love. I have also had a hard time loving myself because of certain things such as verbal and psychological abuse which resulted in bad self esteem. I amaze myself. Because I have came such a long way since love was first really introduced to me. I am now loving toward myself and all people, even the ones who have hurt me the most. Now I believe that love is something every person is capable of, no matter their age, looks, status, or their background. Everyone deserves it. We all need it as though it is a basic necessity of life. People should be able to love whoever their heart desires. Love freely, take chances, go for people you may have not even considered in the past, and most of all be realistic when it comes to love. I’m in love and I don’t plan on walking away from it anytime soon. I will end this column with a quote: “The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.” – Thomas Merton.

The Bantam C Provincial Championship held here last weekend was a great testimonial to how the game is played is what really matters. Sunday, the Renegades lost the final game against rival Ponoka 2-1, but the team put forth its best effort, both on and off the ice, and the fans who filled the bleachers were, indeed, proud of the effort put forth by the young players. The Provincials held March 13 to 16 was a class act from start to finish with Rimbey’s won Bantam Renegades making it to the gold medal game. Fans who crowded into the arena for the opening ceremonies of the tournament were not disappointed. Mayor Rick Pankiw, the master of ceremonies for the event, said hockey requires teamwork, hard work, dedication and a passion for practicing early in the morning. He gave credit to all volunteers involved in making the weekend possible. “Organizing any tournament is a very time consuming endeavor,” he said. Continued on Page 8

Tournament huge success Continued from Page 6 During the ceremonies Pankiw presented tournament chairperson Stacey Johnson with a picture and other memorabilia. Rimbey Minor Hockey representative, Kent Beagle and Hockey Alberta Zone 4 Minor Council Chair, Sherry Haarstad also spoke during the opening ceremonies. “When I heard Rimbey was awarded the Provincials I said ‘dibs on that’ and I knew they would do a bang up first rate job,” said Haarstad. Kim Siebold from Investors Group also spoke. The presentation of flags during the ceremo-
nies was carried out by Jayda Schatschneider (Canada Flag), Keely Park (Provincial Flag), Keelie Beierbach (Renegades Flag), and Shelby Lane (Town of Rimbey Flag). O’ Canada was sung by Cayley Shantz. Following the speeches, players from each of the teams represented at the Provincials marched on the ice carrying their team’s banner. A light show entertained both players and fans. Following the tournament, Johnson said she was overwhelmed to see the fans packing the stands. “I feel it was a huge success,’ she said. During the tournament players from each team were given goodie bags and many businesses hung jerseys in their windows to welcome the visitors.
They save you money.

The extra acts of kindness such as the dad who bought pizza for the Renegades and also for the team they were playing against was enough to put Rimbey on the map as a place of hospitality and friendliness. “We had a very committed host committee and w all worked hard, but everybody helped pull it off. In the end it was all about the kids,” said Johnson. Teams who competed in the Bantam C Provincial Championship were Rimbey Renegades, High Prairie Thunder, Westlock Warriors, Okotoks Oilers, Mallaig Monarchs, Ponoka Moose Bantams, Kneehill Chiefs and Castor Cylcones.

Snow removal discussed at public budget meeting Continued from Page 1 Snow removal was also discussed at some length. It was determined the town had spent about $75,000 on snow removal including the purchase of a new loader and blower. Public works foreman Rick Schmidt said it was a purchase long overdue. “It should have been made prior to this. The loader alleviated a lot of extra work.” The method of hauling snow should be looked at, suggested someone from the audience. “I can haul as much snow in my wheelbarrow as you can in those trucks,” he said. Pankiw said council wants to determine from the public if the level of th service for the snow removal was adequate and if they should continue with that level of service
in the future. He added the (Provincial) government has set aside funding for a natural disaster. However, resident Gayle Rondeel noted there is criteria before a disaster can be declared. “We would still go to them for help (before that level is reached),” said Rondeel. Pankiw clarified that $144,000 has been budgeted for wages for a new CAO. The closing date for applications was March 20. He also explained the $50,000 earmarked for the chamber

Tax increase higher than 1.5 per cent Dear Editor, Re: Article in March 18, 2014 Rimbey Review titled Taxes to go up by 1.5 per cent. It would be nice to have a little more honesty and a little less deception from our politicians. Upon closer examination of the budget draft, you will note it is the mill rate that has gone up 1.5 per cent, not the taxes. Pankiw stated that the average assessment went up by approximately four per cent. You don’t have to be a mathematical genius to figure out that a 1.5 per cent increase in the mill rate plus a four per cent increase in assessment does not add up to a 1.5 per cent tax increase. Let’s be real. The actual average tax increase is closer to four per cent. Aubrey Finnen
is to be put on hold until they come up with a business plan involving the incubator program. “Until that time it stays with the town,” he said. Money has not been earmarked in reserves for the library, but Pankiw said council is meeting with board soon to discuss future plans. Pankiw said he was pleased with the budget meeting. “There was more questions on the budget than we have ever had.” The public was also invited to discuss the budget Friday from noon to 2 p.m.

Beebe takes over as Rimbey’s acting CAO By Treena Mielke The Town of Rimbey now has a woman at its helm and, even though the position is not permanent, it looks like Melissa Beebe has made a seamless transition into the top spot. Beebe, who took over as assistant CAO when Ryan Maier moved to Athabasca to fill the top post for that community, has now stepped into the position of acting CAO, filling a vacancy left by Tony Goode. The spot seems a natural for Beebe, who has been with the Town of Rimbey since 2003, when she moved to the Leedale area from Edmonton where she was working as administration in construction related companies. She moved here with two young

the changes, noting while each council is different, each one has the same primary goals and objectives. “Each council comes in with new perspectives and new ideas, but the main objective is to assess the needs of the community and help to keep it viable and sustainable. Beebe’s climb up the career ladder has been steady, but it is only through her own determination and hard work, that she was able to even begin the climb. Originally from Big River, Saskatchewan she moved to Edmonton in the ‘80s when the economy was strong and jobs were plentiful, even for a high school drop out. But, times changed and before long Beebe found herself raising two girls as a single mom, depending on her salary as a waitress to make ends meet. Wanting a better life for herself and her daughters she enrolled at the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology graduating two years later on the honor roll with a diploma in office administration. From that point on there was no looking back. Her hard work paid off and she was hired as administration before she even graduated. “There’s always a way to get from nothing to something if you are willing to work for it. Just set your mind to it and anybody can do it,” she said. Even with her busy job and family responsibilities, Beebe continues to upgrade her skills and has completed six out of eight ‘local authority administration government studies’ courses. When she has completed the courses she will have her Level 1 Advance Certificate in Local Authority Administration. Education is important to Beebe and she notes experience has shown her that it will opens doors which otherwise would remain closed. She is pleased to note her daughter Jazmine is enrolled in kinesiology at Red Deer College and Jessica will graduate from Grade 12 in Rimbey this year. Meanwhile, Beebe continues to keep busy juggling career and family and making all NEED A the pieces fit as best she can. She encourages Check status of 3 Government other women to choose Grants/Assistance each worth a career they enjoy and $5000 or more follow their dreams.

daughters, beginning a new life with partner Garry Taylor, whom she has since married. The move has proved to be a good one for Beebe, both on a career and personal level. She loves the rural lifestyle and is quite happy to take time off from her busy, demanding job during haying season, but is also glad to be back at work, putting out fires and attending to the needs of the community of which she serves. “I really do like my job,” she said. “There’s lots of learning always. Taking over this job has been a whole new learning curve, but it is rewarding when you know you are making a difference.” During her tenure with the town, Beebe has worked with three councils and three CAOs. When she began in 2003 as executive assistant, Bill Kastiw was the CAO. Later Russ Wardrope came on board and when he retired he was replaced by Tony Goode. During that time, councils changed as well. Beebe reflected on

Skits provided by each team, with props that had been provided to them when they entered and a theme of “On the Rocks”, was entertaining. The Kelly Sulzle rink won the “Relationship on the Rocks” skit competition. The finals went at 3:00 p.m. Sunday. Undefeated “A” event winner was the Trudy Bennett team with third Erin Sather, second Leslie Esteves and lead Andrea Nelson from Blackfalds. They easily defeated the local Bonnie Muzylouski team making Carole Larsen’s team third and Dana Kamlah’s team fourth. The “B” event final was quite a battle.

Woollard, second Marci Terpsma and lead Rosemary Fetaz, who were only one up coming home without the hammer, defeated the Jenn Tripp foursome from Red Deer 6-4 after eight ends. Deb Minta placed third and Marilyn Lutwick fourth. The “C” event was a grueling challenge as both teams had just played the draw before and had to go back on the ice. The Candice Read team from Bentley played both Sunday games shorthanded. Teammates were third Nicole Hunter, who missed Sunday, second Laura Saydak, and lead Melissa Zarantonello. They were the eventual winners against the local Cory Van Velzen team. The Van Velzen team had a marathon of their own just to get to the final. In both the quarterfinals and the semi-finals the team had come through with a wan after being down by three coming home and scoring four in the eighth end.

Farmers frustrated with slow grain transport By Jeffrey Heyden-Kaye
tors association was involved in the logistics of all non-board grains, he explained. “The two logistics sometimes tripped over each other and now what we have is the companies manage the pipeline…So we believe if we had two logistics that the problem would be amplified,” said Subkowich. He feels railway transportation of grains was an issue for the wheat board in recent years. Subkowich has heard some concerns from producers over the railways and grain elevator associations conspiring together but “that couldn’t be further from the truth.” “We need to move this grain and we’ve been at this for years…We’ve been on the public record over and over again that we need legislative back stops so that we don’t
end up in these same situations,” he explained. Order in council from the federal government The issue has caused the federal government to step in and set legislation for the two railway companies to increase shipping or pay fines. CP and CN each must provide 500,000 — approximately 5,500 rail cars — tons of capacity, per week, and if they don’t comply, a penalty of $100,000 per day will be applied. This may be too little, too late. Subkowich expects large amounts of grain being stored for some time. “We’re still going to have about 25 million tons left.” With only two railway companies handling grain transport, Subkowich does not feel grain producers have many options. “A lot of people refer to the rails as a duopoly.”
While farmers were seeing bumper crops last season, railway companies were reducing the number of railcars being used. Farmers are sitting on a payload and unaware shipping would be slowed. While the decision by Canadian Pacific (CP) and Canadian National (CN) railways helped their bottom line, the marketplace is taking a hit. Transport has been slow enough that more than half — 45 million tons — of the 76 million tons of grain produced in Western Canada is still in storage. Advocating to increase grain loads is Wade Subkowich, executive director, Western Grain Elevators Association. “The railways assume the grain is going to move eventually, so they’re not concerned with the negative effects that untimely movement may have on the operations of grain companies and farmers,” stated Subkowich. But storage in the prairies is almost at its maximum while at the port, sellers are desperate to sell grain. Companies are offering low prices on the mainland for grain they cannot store. “The prices are artificially low because the railways are creating a false supply and demand situation because of the lack of capacity.” This also affects grain sellers who are facing daily demurrage charges for failing to load grain in time; approximately $12,000 to $25,000 a day per vessel, says Subkowich. www.rimbeyauction.com Contract extension penalties are being paid to oversees customers as well. Farmers are sitting on grain at risk of degradation and a shortage of cash to invest in product for the next season. Railway representatives claim cold weather and the large quantity of grain was unexpected, says Subkowich, but he questions some of that reasoning after his association and others inWestern Cattle Price formed railways of the 14034KA4 bumper crop. Insurance Program As for cold weather, Subkowich feels CN and CP did not account Market Volatility. Price Variability. We’ve got you for a cold winter season.

Farmers have the choice of dealing with either Canadian Pacific Railway (CP) or Canadian National Railway (CN). In some cases only one company will stop at a grain elevator, explained Subkowich. “You don’t have a choice. You’re beholden to a monopoly.”

The family of the late E.R. “Bud” McLean would like to sincerely thank the medical staff Rimbey Hospital Care Centre, family Doctor C. Ellis, nursing staff and anyone else who in some way helped make Bud’s last days comfortable. We are forever grateful for all your compassion. Many of you went beyond the call of duty.
