RIMBEY REVIEW 3

MLA Nixon discusses caucus, other concerns with council

BY AMELIA NAISMITH Keeping good on an election promise, Rimbey-Rocky Mountain House-Sundre MLA Jason Nixon dropped in for a short, scheduled visit with the Town of Rimbey council during its Oct. 14 meeting.

“One of the commitments I made during the election is I would meet with all 15 elected bodies in the district at least twice a year,” said Nixon.

Nixon told council government sessions resume Oct. 26 and Albertans can expect more debt than the province has had to face in a long time.

“We know they are going to table the budget on Oct. 27.

Nixon says another challenge with the caucus is it is “light on rural representation.”

“And we worked very hard to educate them,” he added.

Council feels this is sig-

nificant because it recently received a letter from the Government of Alberta awarding Rimbey with another $806, 333 for a series of projects; including but not limited to an emergency generator, well water construction and well water generator installation.

Mayor Rick Pankiw says at first the projects were not a priority for the government but now funding is being given. This follows

FCSS receives high scored from Accreditation Canada

BY AMELIA NAISMITH Despite accreditation not being mandatory, Rimbey FCSS decided to undergo an accreditation review by Accreditation Canada to see how it stacks up against other similar organizations.

“We embarked on the whole accreditation process … particularly in the health care field,” said director Peggy Makofka.

The decision was made a year and a half ago and surveyors came out earlier this month to see how the organization scored in approximately 57 different standards. “We were able to meet or exceed 88 per cent,” said Makofka.

Makofka says areas including client safety, quality, education of staff, technology, disaster planning, leadership and community involvement were all looked at.

After first entering an agreement with Accreditation Canada Rimbey FCSS was given a framework template to follow in order to further improve itself. “And then we pulled together our policies and practices,” said Makofka.

During the surveyors inspection a number

of groups related to FCSS were interviewed for a full picture of its impact; including staff, managers, clients, board members and community partners.

Makofka says the next step will be for FCSS to receive a formal letter from Accreditation Canada, in part summarizing its findings.

While she cannot be certain, Makofka thinks the letter will say Rimbey FCSS needs just a little more work before accreditation can happen.

Makofka feels the largest benefit coming out of the process is the guarantee it provides to the community that rural Rimbey can provide the same standard of care expected across the country. “I think that’s reassuring to people living in a small community.”

Rimbey FCSS is also a vendor with Alberta Health Services and Makofka says the outcome is also a reassurance for them, especially if there comes a time in the future when the home care contract becomes a competition.

For those interested in learning more about Rimbey FCSS Makofka encourages them to contact the organization, which is located in the provincial building in Rimbey.

bureaucratic representation of Rimbey to the government, including Nixon. “It’s ironic two weeks after they go and meet on our behalf we have a grant … whether or not they have anything to do with it.”

Nixon told council he is unwilling to play politics with municipal issues until given go-ahead from councils. He says if MLAs and municipal-

ities are on the same page saying the same things there is a chance for better results.

Pankiw also told Nixon he is concerned counties are receiving the bulk of the money from linear assessments and he wants to know where the Opposition stands on the matter. “I know the old Opposition was in favor of it.”

“The Opposition’s prima-

ry concern is rural Alberta still getting its fair shake of whatever comes out of that,” said Nixon.

He feels there needs to be a balance between towns and counties but says the larger concern is making sure the majority of the money is not funneled into Calgary and Edmonton. “Rural and urban Alberta have to work together.

Town of Rimbey looks to create new mission and vision statement

BY AMELIA NAISMITH Creating a mission statement, vision statement and core values for the Town of Rimbey was tabled at council’s Oct. 14 meeting, as Mayor Rick Pankiw wanted staff to be able to take the duty home and come up with individual ideas.

Interim CAO Donna Tona provided a series of questions in an engaging workbook to help council and staff work through their ideas.

Tona feels the town’s old mission statement is too wordy. “Nobody understands what we do.”

“Part of a mission should be short and easy to memorize.

People need to understand who we are and what we do,” she added.

Tona told council a vision statement, different from the goal of the mission statement, needs to relay what the town

inspires to be.

Tona was looking to possibly have all three hammered out by the end of the evening but Pankiw wanted more time and discussion were pushed until council’s next meeting.

Amelia Naismith The older you get the more complicated the holidays become.

When I was a young child I couldn’t wait to grow up and graduate from the ‘kids table’, pulled of its hiding place for family Thanksgiving dinner.

Not only was the ‘grownup table’ made of actual wood rather than colored plastic with Fisher Price stamped on the side but it sat in the fancy dining room rather than the regular old kitchen.

When I finally hit mid-

tional quirks that because they’re so glaring opposite of what a holiday is painted as seem all the more offensive during the holidays.

Been an adult at Thanksgiving means noticing two sisters excitedly plan their Black Friday adventure while the third pretends not to hear and painstakingly focuses her attention anywhere else because she can’t go.

Being an adult means having to bite your tongue when a cousin’s less than

liked boyfriend turns masochistic over dish-washing culture because adult can refrain from making a scene and treat someone with respect, even if they don’t deserve it.

But being an adult at Thanksgiving also means watching the light in someone’s eyes as they think about their future children possibly growing up in Australia. It means being equal enough to lift someone’s spirits when they’re feeling low over what’s really under that

missed shopping trip and it means knowing enough to respect a person’s life and partner choices — even if he acts more like a turkey than the bird did.

The world was never meant to be black and white and the good without the bad wouldn’t be nearly as special or appreciated.

teens and was allowed to move up in stature I spent my first few holidays in a haze of self-congratulatory pomp, cushy chairs and actual elbowroom.

But being an adult, especially around the holidays, when stress and tensions run higher than usual, isn’t the glamorous cakewalk it looked like from the other side.

Now conversations turn to the future as much as they do the past and it just doesn’t always seem as rosy.

Lessons I’ve learned include being grateful for health, goodwill and freedom, and graciously putting on a happy face while standing on the brink of change; even if it means families moving across the country or even world for love. Change like that is always bittersweet but as people grow their worlds can be expected to grow too.

No family is perfect and each one has its dysfunc-

Every once and a while I manage to smuggle a contraband copy of the Rimbey Review out of the Ponoka County. I have some family and friends in the neighbouring communities that like to read my column from time to time. One of those friends is Hobbes, whose own father manages to piece together a column of his own for the Saturday printing a Red Deer newspaper. Hobbes has witnessed firsthand

the difficulties a writer can have each week in conjuring up a new piece of writing — I can empathize with Hobbes’ father.

Hobbes and I were having one of our infamous weekly steak sandwich debriefs in Red Deer: we basically update one another on each other’s lives and try, with our limited collective knowledge, to understand current affairs.

My friend asked me how I was managing the academic life at RDC and still contributing a column each week. It is easy I replied: I usually self-acknowledge a unique thought I may have and if that thought keeps appearing over a couple of

days, I wrestle that thought into a Word processing document file, sleep on it, reread it a few times, edit, and then e-mail (what now is a column) to my editor.

Other times I rely on something crazy that to happen that is worth writing about. Maybe a bull will attack me in a parking lot, or maybe I decide to ride my motorcycle through the Bower Mall, or maybe I suffer from a severe allergic reaction from bee sting while writing a mid-term at RDC. None of those things have happened yet though.

The conversation Hobbes and I were having shifted from what I write about to some of Hobbes’ scary

notions towards a pending world war three. It wasn’t a direct conversational leap — the topic to topic flow of our casual discussion had some intermediate steps.

I asked Hobbes if he would ever join the military if a large scale global conflict broke out. He said no. And then he redirected the question to me; and I answered that I didn’t know if I would enlist or not…

The bill came and Hobbes and I went on our separate ways. I had the commute from Red Deer to Rimbey to think; and maybe, I was thinking, I would write something more philosophical than political or pop cultural.

As fast as a thought can come and go, a couple of deer came out of the Blind Man River valley near the intersection of highway twenty-two and highway twelve. I struck the second deer dead on in the truck I was driving. I watched the body of the deer skid sideways off the west side of the road.

I pulled over and inspected the truck. There was minimal damage to the front bumper; nothing was leaking. I looped back and did my best to scan for any signs of the animal.

The vanquished deer had vanished into the tall grass of the ditch. Life is fragile — I thought.

Rimbey volunteer received Seniors Service volunteer award

BY AMELIA NAISMITH A long time Rimbey volunteer was recently awarded a coveted Alberta Senior’s Service Award, receiving recognition at the Alberta Government House by Sarah Hoffman, Minister of Seniors, and MLA Jason Nixon.

The service award is an accolade an individual or group must be nominated for and when Gladys Johnson returned from holidays earlier this year she found the papers were already drawn up in her name.

“There were four groups involved in my nomination,” said Johnson, referring to the Wooddale Ladies, the Rimbey Hospital Auxiliary, Rimbey and District Old Timers and the Rimbey and District Drop In Centre. “(I’m) very humbled and a little bit unbelieved (sic),” said Johnson.

The Government of Alberta received a total of 81 nominations this year, says Johnson, and chose eight recipients.

Johnson says the actual banquet and celebration was quite elegant with other recipients came from as far away as Grande Prairie and Youngstown. “I found all the others were people that did wonderful contributions.”

In the name of volunteering, Johnson first joined the Wooddale Ladies 60 years ago for the social aspect as well the benefits it would provide to the community.

“I think the overall picture is you start of volunteer because you see a need and a purpose rather than going along for the ride.”

Johnson joined the Hospital Auxiliary in the 1980s, the Old Timers in 1994 and the Drop In Centre in the early 2000s.

“The Drop In Centre was the biggest thing because Rimbey has so many seniors,” said Johnson. “The old drop in they had was purely inadequate in size.”

Johnson teamed up with another Rimbey woman, who now serves as the president of the Drop In Centre to get the ball rolling on a project to create something better.

While admiring the other recipients Johnson says they were mainly focused on manors and extended care, which differs from her views on seniors’ volunteerism impacts.

She highlights the goal of the Drop In Centre it to keep seniors as active as possible for as long as possible. “And I think that’s the big purpose.”

Gladys Johnson (center left) received a 2015 Minister’s Seniors Service Award for her volunteerism in the community, Oct. 6.

6 RIMBEY REVIEW

Letter Dear Editor, To all of the Good People in Alberta, and especially those in Rimbey, and the immediate surrounding area: I am a native Albertan, born in Innisfail, and spent most of my life on the farm just East of Innisfail. I moved to the Rimbey area just over five years ago.

This is a gorgeous area to live in, and the people are awesome!

I have been here to watch the fiasco with Joe Anglin begin and end. It was good to see the end of that era, as it was an embarrassment for the constituency.

The difference between Joe and the government we have now is, Joe wasn’t dangerous, just arrogant and stupid. Now we have a majority government who is dangerous because most of the elected members have no clue how to run anything, and yes, some are simply stupid. Unfortunately, there is no fix for stupid.

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 2015

Did Albertans make the right decision?

Now we get to the reason for my letter. I’m not a politically minded person, and I have never written a letter to any paper, for any reason, let alone a politically motivated one. This is my first, and I am expressing my disappointment and disgust with the government our fellow Albertan’s have chosen. No one I have had a conversation with has admitted to voting NDP, but someone did, so they must be too embarrassed to admit it, or my world is too small.

I’m sure the real fact is my world is too small.

The NDP won the election with brilliant use of Social Media. For them it was a secret election. Nobody knew where they were or what they were doing until it was way too late to do anything about it. Shame on the PC’s! They recruited the last generation and a half of young Albertans.

The ones who have lived a lifetime of entitlement,

and have no idea what it means to actually work for a living or pay their own way.

They fit right into the NDP mentality. The government will take care of me, I don’t need to work hard or take any risks. Life will be good if I vote for the NDP. I know because they told me so.

As a native Albertan, I’m embarrassed! I’m embarrassed that my fellow Albertans have elected a Socialist Government. It goes against every fiber of my being to accept that the entrepreneurial spirit of my fellow Albertans has been overshadowed and outvoted by the other Albertans who feel so entitled that they want $15/day childcare and all the other handouts promised by the NDP government.

My question is who is going to pay for this?

Seriously folks, who will pay? Our new government has barely been seen, but they’ve managed to pass a substantial pay-raise for themselves, promise that no public employees will

lose their jobs, and promise an ongoing energy royalty review. The NDP have been in office for half a year now!

What is our tax money paying these people to do?

I don’t know if it’s true, but I heard our Environment Minister traveled to BC and campaigned with a friend against Alberta pipelines.

That’s awesome, isn’t it?

That shows support for the Alberta economy from one of our sitting members of parliament, not!

How can this government make the statement that no public sector jobs will be lost, when the people who pay the taxes that support these jobs are losing their jobs by the thousands? I’m simply asking the question.

How is that possible, and how does that compute?

This governments ongoing royalty review, refusal to table a budget until after the federal election in hope that a Federal NDP government will be elected, has stopped all oil and gas energy related work. As a result, Albertans have lost thousands of jobs,

and all of Canada, not just Alberta, have lost their primary revenue source. If Canadians elect an NDP government, we as Albertans, and eventually all of Canada will be the laughing stock of the primary economies of the world.

The energy giants will likely be prepared to deal with an NDP government in Alberta, for what amounts to 3.5 years now, as they have already wasted 10% of their mandate.

However, I can assure you, if Canadians elect an NDP Federal Government, the billions in energy royalties and all the financial benefits all Canadians enjoy, will be gone!

And lastly, Mr. Hart. Mr. Hart states right in his article that 70 per cent of Alberta’s exports are from the oil and gas industry. Mr. Mulcair’s people say that to meet the NDP’s environmental goals that Alberta’s energy might just have to stay in the ground. I guess that means Alberta has just lost 70 per cent of its income. How much of that revenue goes to the rest of Canada in transfers? I can tell you it’s a lot!! I don’t know what the numbers are, but the NDP does. But they won’t tell you because if they did, you wouldn’t vote for them in a thousand years. Agriculture has not been forgotten about. I am an Alberta farmer, and we farmers benefit just as much as anyone else from a strong economy.

Do I think we need to diversify our economy in Alberta? Of course I do, and I can likely speak for almost every other Albertan as well.

No one in Alberta enjoys the highs and lows in the energy industry. But “HELLO”! We can’t shut down 70 per cent of our economy and then start to come up with diversification plans. We need to work into it so it becomes a seamless transition.

Mr. Hart is way off the mark if he thinks for a moment that other countries have lost confidence in Canada. Canada maintained a strong economy longer that any of the other major economies in the world. Canada has in fact been envied by many other countries for their ability to maintain a strong economy with so much global turmoil. Our dollar hasn’t dropped because our economy is weak; our dollar has dropped because the American dollar has the appearance of being strong.

Could that have something to do with the trillions of dollars the Federal Reserve is printing and injecting into the American economy?

Nobody cares about the silly little scandals, Mr. Hart. People care about the economy and their livelihoods. They care about how they are going to feed their families. Do you think anybody really cares about Mike Duffy or the Senate?

I doubt it.

Will you personally volunteer to sit across the table from an ISIS member wearing a suicide vest and packing an AK-47 to diplomatically resolve the conflict in the Middle East? I think not but if so, you have my vote!

And you Mr. Hart, have you ever had a real job where you had to be accountable for something?

You’ve served on boards and committees and councils and blah, blah, blah. Not to mention your strong Labor Union association. I don’t see anything in here where you could be held personally accountable for anything you’ve done.

As you can see, I am not a union supporter, and I doubt you will find very many strong union supporters in Alberta. Even the young naïve voters who voted NDP in the Alberta election aren’t likely strong Union Supporters. My guess is they likely didn’t even think about it.

That’s my rant Folks, I hope I haven’t offended too many of you. I had to get it off my chest, and if I didn’t make it heard then I would have no right to complain about it.

My sincere hope is that the Albertans who elected an NDP government realize what a huge mistake they made, and the people of Canada wake up in time to avoid making the same mistake federally, as 40 per cent of Albertans made provincially.

Harper muzzled Canada

Letters Dear Editor: The various results of the past years of Stephen Harper’s Conservative government give me grave concern. His government seems to have a strong theme of muzzling and restriction, with decisions being made at one level

RIMBEY REVIEW 7

(the top) with little or no debate and discussion.

MPs have been muzzled as they are instructed to vote along party lines — which does not allow for them to listen to their constituents and represent them appropriately in government.

Effective debate in parliament is muzzled through

burying key pieces of legislation in omnibus bills of massive length— so that it is impossible to read them and cogently respond and debate. Scientists have been muzzled as their funding is cut and as they are prevented from sharing important research both with their colleagues

Get off the sidelines Dear Editor, I wanted to share my excitement regarding the fitness opportunities in Rimbey. I see we have Zumba, Taekwon Dow, Functional fitness, boot camps and various other drop-in opportunities. My class on Tuesdays and Thursdays has a really nice dedicated group that works hard to schedule fitness into their week. I am excited for them. More can be done in our little community.

With heart disease the second leading cause of death in Canada (behind #1 cancer) it is interesting to note that it is 100 per cent preventable (provided you have no pre-existing congenital issues).

I challenge you parents who take the time to drive your kids to Taekwon Dow and then sit on the sidelines watching to get in there and join. Children notice what you do in your spare time.

Children do not gain self-esteem from parents watching them, but from doing things that challenge them and becoming proficient. There are no studies that state,

“parents need to watch their kids exercise to support them”. As a matter of a fact dance studios often will not allow parents to watch, kids in music lessons don’t have their parents watch. Even when my kids were in gymnastics I was astounded at the number of parents sitting watching.

Why not leave and go for a big walk or hit the gym and lift weights? In 30 minutes you have enough time to complete a full body workout that will improve cardio vascular function, lower blood pressure, increase bone density and elevate your mood. Imagine a whole hour?

Fitness is not about weight, looks or vanity. It is about showing our children we love ourselves as much as we love them and we are willing to take care of ourselves and make time for fitness for ourselves, and them. Join something for yourself, join something with your kids, but seriously, don’t let them see you sitting on the sidelines doing nothing.

Rimbey is going to see an influx of cowboys this Halloween as the Invitational Bronc Riding and Tie-down Roping Jackpot is scheduled to be held at the Rimbey Agrim Centre on Oct. 31.

Event organizer Tim Edge says champion bronc rider Frank Wyzykowski is supplying the horses and his brother Dean Edge will bring the calves.

“It’s just a chance for the public to come and watch an event at the center in conjunction with some Halloween activities for the kids,” said Edge.

The jackpot also gives the community a sneak peek at this year’s Canadian Finals Rodeo (CFR) contenders, as Edge says the event is invi-

tational only and is putting a priority on the world’s top rodeo athletes.

Held 15 days before the CFR starts Edge says this jackpot is also giving the cowboys a kind if practice run before they saddle up.

“It’s giving them an opportunity to get on some world class bucking horse,” said Edge. For the ropers, they will be able to test their skills on topnotch cattle in front of the Rimbey crowd.

“It gives them an opportunity to tone up and bone up before what could be the biggest rodeo of their careers,” said Edge.

The festivities begin at 7 p.m. with those 10 years old and younger getting in free. “Kids are welcome to come dressed up, with the possibility of a costume

I hope all Canadians thoughtfully consider how they vote in this election.

In a climate of reducing the average citizen’s ability to express his or her opinions, voting gains even more significance. A variety of worrying measures have been introduced under Stephen Harper, at many levels, which have radically changed the nature of Canadian government and decision-making and it is time for a change.

For myself, I would act on my concerns and vote anything but conservative, but my family was transferred out of the country through work, and — in spite of being a Canadian tax payer, a Canadian citizen born and bred, and a current student completing graduate work at a Canadian university — I am not allowed to vote.

Muzzled indeed.

Rimbey Minor Hockey looks to create well-rounded players

BY AMELIA NAISMITH Rimbey Minor Hockey’s pre-season is already underway and the organization is looking to host another year filled with instilling a love of the sport into athletes of all ages and levels.

President Jason Ryden says the organization focuses as much on life skills, such as teamwork and confidence building is it does actual hockey.

“For the most part, until Peewee, you’re developing kids to play to the next level or hockey for life,” said Ryden.

Hockey for life is the concept young players have such a positive experience in minor hockey they continue to play after they have aged out of the program in any level, from competitive

’RE !

WE C K

to recreational, purely for love of the sport.

“For us that’s our goal … to give them development skills,” said Ryden.

This season Rimbey Minor Hockey has approximately 11 teams playing, ranging from Mites to Midget.

Ryden says some of the teams are split small enough skill development can become an even bigger focus than what it has been in the past.

Smaller teams also allows for half-ice games, which gives players more opportunities to get on the ice. Ryden says this practice will see many benefits. “The more times kids are on the ice and the more repetition the more they’ll enjoy it.”

More games on the ice leads to more shifts per

player and Ryden says this will help players who did not always have a chance to get their sticks on the puck to be more engaged and make a difference with their team; rather then only the fastest and strongest players.

“In the end it might attract more people to play hockey,” said Ryden.

“It’s not just for the success of wins and loses and compete, compete, compete. It’s about those life skills,” he added.

Ryden explains having half-ice games will also help alleviate ice time scheduling, which have been an issue in the past as Minor Hockey is not the only group in town looking to use the ice.

“It’s a challenge but I think the coaches and the parents are open to the opportunity.”

RIMBEY REVIEW 9

Long time Bentley volunteer moves on

BY JUNE NORVILA She was Queen of the Hill and an honored guest for an afternoon.

Long time volunteers are sure to be missed and it is no different at the Bentley Care Centre.

A farewell tea was held honoring Alice Park who has given of her time for 21 years.

“She didn’t want anything formal or too big as she doesn’t like that kind of thing,” said Donna Park, the Bentley Care Centre Rec Therapy Assistant, so the farewell tea with residents, staff, other volunteers and a few other guests was planned.

Donna Park presented the humble Alice with a floral table centerpiece and a framed certificate from the town of Bentley that stated ‘in recognition and appreciation of 21 years of dedicated service to the Bentley Care Centre’.

A collage of photos of Alice assisting at different types of events over the years was on display.

Alice Park started volunteering on November 10, 1994 when the Bentley Care Centre was still the Bentley General Hospital.

She started by setting and combing out hair for three ladies on a weekly basis.

There was no hair salon on site at the time. Her volunteerism branched out and expanded from there.

She helped with outings and events of all kinds and aided with decorating the place both inside and out, especially for different times of the year. She assisted with ongoing horticulture programs, bus trips and tours, around town events, special events, and just in general did whatever she could to help enhance the resident’s

quality of life.

“She was strategically placed so she could help a number of residents at the same time with (weekly) bingos,” explained Donna.

“Anything asked of her she willingly did. I was never turned down.”

When Alice was asked what part she liked best she answered, “I enjoyed everyone (all the different Care Centre projects that she helped with). I loved the kids (when the Mom and Tots Intergenerational program was active). I especially enjoyed the RCMP dog tours and going to greenhouses.”

Alice and husband Dale moved from Edmonton to Bentley in 1969.

The Parks always saved space on the sidewalk in front of their house for care centre residents to park chairs and wheelchairs to view the annual parade. That way, care centre residents and staff never had to worry about lining up early to get a good spot for viewing. The Park’s residence was right across the street from the care centre and directly on the parade route.

The Parks have sold their Bentley home and are now renting a condominium in Red Deer.

“The house and yard work just got to be too much work.

There will be no more grass to mow, no snow to shovel,” she says.

Alice says she has two daughters so close by that she can walk to their place.

When asked if she will volunteer in Red Deer Alice said, “I haven’t thought it through. The first thing is to get settled. I will miss them (the residents and the other people).”

Over the 21-year span, Alice has seen five different recording systems and three different volunteer

coordinators so some of her volunteer hours were probably lost, and sometime Alice just did not officially record her hours. Her documented hours of volunteerism had reached 1948.75 but it is estimated that it is probably only about 2/3 of the actual time she helped.

Her volunteerism at the Bentley Care Centre officially ended September 29 but she told some residents she would try to come back for a visit.

Alice Park will be greatly missed by residents, and staff, and other co-volunteers alike. She has touched the lives of so many.

Alice Park (right) was honored for her volunteerism at the Bentley Care Centre at a farewell tea on October 8 in the resident’s dining room. Donna Park, the Bentley Care Centre Rec Therapy Assistant, thanked her for 21 years of devoted service and presented her with flowers and a framed certificate.

FortisAlberta to purchase VNM REA electricity system assets

VNM Rural Electrification Association (REA) members have voted to sell their electricity system assets to FortisAlberta. At a recent special general meeting, 97 per cent of members voted in favour to sell these assets. VNM REA is located in the Barrhead and Westlock County area, northwest of Edmonton.

The sale, valued at $16.0 million, has been approved by the Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC), the agency responsible for the regulation of electricity distribution utilities in Alberta. VNM REA members, who collectively own the REA’s assets, will receive more than $25,000 for each service. This sale follows the acquisition of Kingman REA by FortisAlberta, also recently approved by the AUC.

15103ZF0

“Selling VNM REA’s electricity system assets to FortisAlberta is the most appropriate course of action for our members,” says Richard Hadley, President, VNM REA. “We are proud of our long history and what we have accomplished, however, times have changed and our membership understands the enormous complexity of running an REA. We are selling our assets to a trusted partner and a qualified and reliable electricity utility and this was overwhelmingly supported by our members.”

FortisAlberta has a long-standing relationship with VNM REA and has partnered with them to operate their electricity distribution system for 65 years. “It has been a privilege to serve the VNM REA members since 1950 and work alongside the VNM REA Board of Directors throughout this process,” says Phonse Delaney, President and CEO, FortisAlberta. “We appreciate the overwhelming show of support from VNM members and we look forward to continuing to provide safe and reliable electricity distribution service to them as customers of FortisAlberta.”

FortisAlberta serves the electricity needs of farms, businesses and homes in more than 200 communities across rural Alberta.

The Company’s focus is the safe and reliable delivery of electricity with more than 120,000 kilometres of power lines.

Rimbey steer wrestler takes third at Cowboy Classic

BY AMELIA NAISMITH Rimbey area steer wrestler Rudy Neiborg placed third in the Foothills Cowboys Association (FCA) 60th annual Cowboy Classic, held in Red Deer Oct. 9 to 11.

Neiborg was not the only one of his team to come home successful. “My horse was steer wrestling horse of the year. He’s been one of the best horses going down the rode for years.”

Neiborg’s horse, Banjo, is so suited for steer wrestling two other cowboys also asked to ride him during the Classic; Brendan Laye and Troy Pollitt, who won first and second, respectively.

“I thought that was neat,” said Neiborg. “That’s the finals so that’s were we end up for the year.”

“I’ve made it to the finals every year since I’ve had this horse. For me the highlight is my horses,” he added.

While Mark Heggie’s Boston took home hazing horse of the year, Neiborg says he is also proud to own

one of the best hazing horses in the business in Drifter.

Neiborg rode away from the Cowboy Classic with an average of 21.6 points, approximately $1,600 and 75 season points.

These may be the last points Neiborg ever earns through the FCA, as he is looking to retire come the end of the year. “The grind and the bump and the bruises are starting to take their toll.”

Neiborg says coming to that conclusion was an incredibly hard decision.

“That’s where my friends are at. Basically these guys are my family.”

While he will wait and see what spring brings Neiborg says he feels done. He is ready to take more time to ride his horses in the mountains rather than the rodeo arena.

Neiborg says he rodeod as a kid but quite for 12 years.

He got back into it a decade ago for some great times.

“Every spring feels like a family reunion.”

Dedicated 2 You!

Compensation available to landowners and farmers for Wetland restoration with DUC (Camrose, Alta.—Oct. 5, 2015) Drained sloughs could be a cash cow for farmers and landowners when they restore these wetland areas with Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC).

And there couldn’t be a better time. DUC is ramping up its presence and activity in Alberta in response to increased priority given to mitigating the effects of drought and flood conditions. Recently, the conservation organization and leader in wetland restoration received additional funding from the Government of Alberta’s Watershed Resiliency and Restoration Program to restore more wetlands in Alberta. As a result, DUC opened a new office in Strathmore and added more field and GIS technical staff to their wetland restoration team to expand their reach.

Two DUC wetland restoration programs best suited to farmers and landowners, particularly those who use their land for grazing and/or cropping, are the 10-year lease program and the Revolving Land Purchase (RLP) program. The 10-year lease program provides compensation to landowners based on current fair market value for the restored wetland area. DUC pays for all wetland restoration costs associated with a 10year lease while allowing the landowner to manage the restored area which may include haying or grazing.

Alternatively, the RLP program involves the purchase of land from landowners, restoration of wetland and upland habitat, and registration of a conservation easement on the land title. The land is then sold back to the local agricultural community with the assurance that valuable wetland function and natural ecosystems will be maintained for long-term benefit. Proceeds of the land sale are then used to fund more restoration projects by DUC. continued on page 18

ANDERSON METRO On Sunday, October 11, 2015, our dear mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, Ethel Marie Metro of Rimbey, Alberta passed away peacefully at the Rimbey Hospital and Care Centre at the age of 93 years.

Ethel was born in Bashaw, Alberta on February 19, 1922, and was the youngest of 19 children. She attended school at the Calumet Country School. Upon completing her schooling, Ethel worked for a family in the Ferintosh area before returning home to look after her mother. After her mother’s passing, she worked on area farms with various family and friends for a few years, as well as traveled to Taber to work on a sugar beet operation. Ethel loved music and dancing, and was known to play the guitar with her sister, Margaret.

In 1946, she was united in marriage to Alex Metro, and they began farming together in the Lockhart District west of Bentley. They began their loving family in 1949 with the birth of their daughter, Marlene; their son, James in 1951; and another son, Larry in 1959. Ethel enjoyed a life of hard work and dedication to family, faith and her friends. She enjoyed a good laugh, great food, and a rousing game of cards. Ethel was an active member of the Catholic Women’s League and the Lockhart Ladies Club.

In 1979, Ethel and Alex left the farm and moved into Rimbey, where Ethel went to work in the kitchen at the Rimbey Auction Mart for a few years. She moved into the Parkland Manor in 2003, and later to the Rimbey Long Term Care Centre. Ethel loved to go out to the farm and visit with her kids and grandkids…they were each a special light in her life and she enjoyed them all immensely. When the great grandchildren started to come along, she was one very proud great grandma! Ethel will always be remembered for her caring hand, and her kind and loving nature. She will be greatly missed.

Ethel will be lovingly remembered by her son, Larry (Bonnie) Metro of Bentley; and her son-in-law, Ray (Lora) Walker also of Bentley. Her legacy will live on through her treasured grandchildren: Cherie Johns, Karen Jaffray, Linda Schneider, Adam Metro, Ashley Campbell, and Amber Walker; as well as her 12 cherished great grandchildren.

Ethel was predeceased by her beloved husband, Alex in 1986; her son, James in 1968; and her daughter, Marlene in 1993.

Mass of Christian Burial was celebrated at St. Margaret’s Catholic Church, Rimbey on Friday, October 16, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. with the Reverend Father Les Drewicki, Celebrant. Interment followed at 2:30 p.m. in the Bentley Cemetery, Bentley. If friends desire, memorial tributes in Ethel’s Memory may be made directly to the David Thompson Health Trust, c/o Rimbey Hospital and Care Centre ~ Long Term Care, Box 440, Rimbey, Alberta T0C 2J0; or to the charity of one’s choice. Condolences to the Metro Family may also be expressed by e-mail to: special_reflections@telusplanet.net Funeral and Burial Arrangements for the Late Ethel Marie Metro entrusted to the care of OBERHAMMER FUNERAL CHAPELS LTD.

Florence May Anderson of Rimbey, Alberta passed away on Sunday, October 11th, 2015 at the age of 78 years.

Florence was born on October 26th, 1936 to parents Charles and Olga Irwin. She and her brothers William (Willy) and Albert (Bud) Irwin and sister Hazel grew up on a farm near Gilby, Alberta. She rode her horse to school nearly every day and worked along with family on the farm. After meeting and marrying her husband, Andrew (Andy) Anderson, she applied all of her skills and knowledge that she learned from her devoted mother and hardworking father to raising her four children; George (Ronda) Anderson, Kathy (Barry) Maser, Cheryl (Bob) Langmuir and Carol Anderson on the Anderson family farm East of Rimbey.

Florence was a devoted mother and respected rancher whose quality calves that she sold each fall were admired and brought top dollar. She grew grain and baled the hay herself. She grew the best garden and was meticulous about her yard which bloomed with beautiful flowers and had manicured lawns, trees and shrubs.

After divorcing and retiring, she remained on the farm.

She met a wonderful, intelligent companion, John Crooks of Veteran, Alberta. After losing him, tragedy continued with the loss of her sister, Hazel, and daughters Cheryl and Kathy. She found strength and joy in her nine grandchildren, eleven great-grandchildren, and devoted her time to her garden, flowers and shrubs right until her passing.

Funeral Services were held from Wilson’s Funeral Chapel in Rimbey, Alberta on Thursday, October 15th, 2015 at 1:00 pm with Reverend Deborah Laing officiating.

Interment followed in the West Haven Cemetery in Rimbey, AB. If friends desire, memorial donations may be made to S.T.A.R.S. Alberta: (Shock Trauma Air Rescue Society) Southern Alberta 1441 Aviation Park N.E. Box 570 Calgary, Alberta T2E 8M7.

Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the family by visiting www.wilsonsfuneralchapel.ca WILSON’S FUNERAL CHAPEL & CREMATORIUM

Girls’ volleyball teams hold strong season beginning

BY AMELIA NAISMITH It was a triumphant night for Spartans volleyball as two girls’ teams dominated and won their home games on Oct. 13.

Junior A Girls The Junior A girls team won all five sets against the Clive B team; 25-12, 25-14, 25-20, 25-7, 15-8.

Coach Pat Burrage says there may have been thoughts at the beginning of the game the teams may have been more evenly matched but it did not take long for the coaches to see Rimbey was the superior team.

As of Oct. 13 the Junior A team was yet to lose a regular season game, even against other A teams.

Burrage says one of the challenges the girls face is the stigma that comes it being part of a small rural team. “We have to let league officials know Rimbey comes

to play A ball.”

In the future Burrage hopes to ensure the team will have the opportunity to square off against more evenly matched teams of a higher caliber.

Many of the players are also new to tier A volleyball and Burrage says all but one girl played junior B last year.

“It’s a really big step up for them.”

“We have a pretty good team,” he added. “The biggest improvement we’ve seen in this team is their offense, their ability to attack.”

Burrage says the girls’ defensive and passing abilities are improving as well, which is leads to opportunities to use aggression.

JV Girls The Spartans JV Girls team also won their game against Pigeon Lake, losing only the fourth set, 25-27.

The girls’ winning sets came in at 25-15, 26-24, 25-10 and 15-10.

In regular league play the team has won two of its three games and recently placed second in a JV tournament held in Ponoka.

“They’re doing well,” said coach Karen Skeels.

Skeels says the team has a lot of strengths, which are coming out in games. “They are honestly playing volleyball like rock stars.”

“It’s a good group of kids that work together as a team,” she added.

Skeels says the biggest thing the team is looking to work on over the season is passing. “I don’t think any team tries to stop getting better at that.”

Skeels says one of her focuses for the season is to give the girls as many big volleyball opportunities as she can, such as the recent joint practice held with the Red Deer College team and coaches.

The next JV home games are Oct. 27 and Nov. 3.

Wetland restoration with DUC

Rimbey senior high school awards

BY AMELIA NAISMITH Rimbey Junior Senior High School held an senior awards

continued from page 12 Wetlands, as proven by research, have the ability to store water, slow the release of water into surrounding streams and rivers, filter excess pollutants into watersheds, and recharge groundwater. They also serve as a water source for livestock and provide habitat for wildlife and waterfowl.

Landowners and farmers who have engaged in either DUC program report several benefits, and use them as part of their long-term land management strategies. They are also able to accrue a higher return on investment on land that was formerly viewed as unproductive.

Anyone interested in DUC’s wetland restoration programs should contact their area conservation program specialist by calling 1 866 479 3825 or emailing restoremywetlands-ab@ducks.ca-
