My grandchildren, lured by the promise of quad rides, canoe rides, a chance to shoot a real gun and the opportunity to help band saw-whet owls, were ready.

In fact, they were more than ready.

They were pumped.

A lot of 11 and 13-year olds would not have willingly loaded up their parent’s SUV with pillows and blankets and video games and strange music and headphones and iPhones and iPads and subjected themselves to eight hours of driving time just to do any or all of the above.

But these kids did and,

Jonah Kondro

Red Deer, Alberta Published every Tuesday by PNG Prairie Newspaper Group in community with: President: Mary Kemmis

of silence faded away and someone turned ‘kid speak’ on.

“How much farther? I’ve been in this car for a hundred hours? Are we almost there? Are we at least in Saskatchewan? Mom, tell him to stop looking at me like that. He is so bugging me. No, she is bugging me.

Can I sit in the front? Can I? Can I? You wrecked my headphones. Why do you always do that?

How could you eat every single chocolate bar? I think I’m going to be carsick.

Of course, as in all road trips, the end comes eventually, and, finally, after we had driven past three hundred thousand fields that stretched endlessly from the road to the horizon and looked surprisingly similar to the field we had just passed and the one we passed before that, we found the plastic owl.

Seeing the plastic owl perched majestically at the entrance of the long and winding driveway was a good thing.

It meant we had arrived.

And so we spilled out of the vehicle, our limbs slightly numb and our

brains foggy from seeing nothing but fields and sky and more of the same for such a long time, and pasted on plastic smiles.

We assured our host the trip was good, we loved all things about Saskatchewan and we were ready for the fun to begin.

I must admit I was a little worried the kids would not realize the great opportunities that lay before them in the good old rural prairie province, and might end up doing kid things like nothing and more of the same.

I could not have been more wrong.

And for the short time we visited, my citified grandchildren, without any resistance at all on their part, became quite thoroughly countrified.

I had made a list of things to do because I felt like I should, being the grandma and all.

But, really they needed no list. They just seemed to know.

I watched them watching the Northern Lights flicker and dance across the sky and I knew without saying they felt the

appropriate sense of awe they should feel when gazing upon the wonders of the heavens.

As for me, I just felt grateful for my grandchildren and and for the Northern Lights.

And I watched them take a tiny owl captured in mid flight in a mist net, and hold the bird ever so gently and observe it being weighed, measured, banded and finally released and I was pleased.

And it turned out I didn’t have to tell them about the thrill of riding the quad, or the fact the machine was very powerful and big.

They drove it with equal amounts of excitement and respect!

And I didn’t need to talk about the absolute tranquility and beauty experienced while floating down a slough in an old wooden canoe or the almost giddy excitement of aiming a firearm at a target like a coke can filled with water and watching it shatter when the bullet hit it, dead on.

I didn’t have to tell them any of that stuff.

They, in fact, told me!

Intellectual inbreeding could cause potential problems at college level

in fact, quite happily!

For the children, the road trip was a very long prelude to the fun things to come.

Very long!

I’m sure there are ways to shorten the drive to Prince Albert, Sask. somehow, but weirdly enough no one in my family has every figured that out.

We just drive.

“East,” I say, but quietly to my daughter, the driver.

“We just need to go east.”

And in the end, we did go east, but first, because apparently the trip to PA isn’t quite long enough we went the wrong way first.

The little trip backwards was not a good thing and for a great many miles no one said much of anything at all. It was a time when silence was truly golden, and until the cut like a knife type of tension in the vehicle dissipated, that rule held.

We just drove, staring in silence at the road and the fields and the sky and being silently hopeful our wheels were turning in the right direction.

Finally, relaxed and confident we weren’t actually heading home, the sounds

Anyone with an internet connection or cable has watched the news has heard a story about the deplorable conditions of a puppy mill. These dog breeding businesses breed and inbreed puppies in cramped pens and kennels—less than ideal conditions. The development of the animal suffers and ultimately

the puppies end up with cross wired brain connections. Excuse my political incorrectness: puppy mills breed retarded dogs.

From a business model standpoint, puppy mills are a licence to print money. A high volume of product that can be produced inexpensively. It’s a simple matter to keep the dogs breeding with whatever they can get their paws on and keep the kibble trays full; nature handles the rest. The quality of the dog that was bred in these conditions will never graduate to be the best in show, though.

There are reputable breeders out there. There is more refined processes of dog breeding that take longer periods to train the animals and requires professional trainers to do so. These trainers have

to give more attention to smaller groups of animals so that the dogs develop to their maximum potential. The elitist dog breeders don’t rely on flooding the market to make a profit. It is through a rich process of education and instruction that makes small volume of dogs, from a reputable breeder, sought after. No dog owner wants a pup that is cross-eyed, barks at the wall, chases its own tail, and doesn’t understand the difference between the bedroom floor and the backyard.

I recently attended a presentation that announced Red Deer College’s pending transformation into a polytechnic university. For some strange reason I feel that that future institutional title won’t have the capacity to grant me any

sort English undergraduate degree—however, I already knew that my lifespan at RDC was going to be short. Sometime soon I will have to schmooze a big city university into letting me in its doors.

I have some apprehensions though about RDC’s future as a polytechnic university: I don’t want to see the institution degrade into blasphemous diploma (or degree) mill.

These sort of post-secondary schools do exist south of our national borders. The business model of a diploma mill models that of a puppy mill—massive breeding (or inbreeding) for means of profit.

Part of the so called sales pitch (at the presentation) included the belief that international students will be attracted

to attend post-secondary studies in Red Deer as a polytechnic university.

RDC just cut its second language programs last year: French and Spanish classes got cleaved. It was only after student dismay and protest that French was brought back to RDC on a limited level. Just type in most commonly spoken languages into Google’s search engine and the paradox I’m suggesting will be realized.

The core values of RDC are changing.

RDC is essentially a business and I understand this concept. The suitwearing-types just want to expand their business like any business owners would. However, while I attend RDC I don’t want to have to make fists with my paws and fight over dry kibble.

Federal election candidates ready to move on

BY TREENA MIELKE The votes have been counted. The results tabulated and flashed across networks. The winners and the losers have watched, waited and finally gone home.

It’s over! The federal election, a long, long road filled with heated debates, dissension, thinly veiled disdain and political jargon that has more often than not left voters slightly confused is done and Canada will be ruled by a majority Liberal government.

In the aftermath of the long, tedious and costly election, re-elected Conservative candidate for the Red Deer-Lacombe riding, Blaine Calkins says he still “has a fire in his belly.�

Although he admits the results, which saw the Liberals sweep the nation with an overwhelming majority win, has left him with a new and challenging role, he says he is ready. “It is new for me, but I need to keep on sticking

up for folks here, the veterans and the seniors and the families. We need to keep our economy growing and keep taxes for all Canadian down. When the Liberals come up with bad ideas we need to be effective at stopping those ideas from happening.�

Calkins, in keeping with an impressive track record of handily claiming his riding in the last three elections captured 70.4 per cent of the votes in the Red Deer-Lacombe riding on Oct. 19.

He said he is humbled and grateful for the support received by his team of helpers and his constituents. “Who would have thought this could happen to a farm boy from Lacombe? I’m very humbled.�

Calkins expressed best wishes to Liberal candidate Jeff Rock and NDP candidate Doug Hart. “I want to thank them for a good campaign and

I wish them well,� he said.

For Liberal candidate Jeff Rock, the party’s landslide victory seemed to overshadow any negative feelings regarding garnering only 15.4 per cent of the votes. “I’m probably the happiest losing candidate in Canada,� he said.

Barbara and Blaine Calkins, outside the doors of the Lacombe Memorial Centre, are ready to cast their ballots on Oct. 19. The Conservative candidate for the LacombeRed Deer riding, Blaine Calkins was re-elected with 70.4 per cent of the votes.

County offers assistance to Town of Rimbey

BY JORDIE DWYER BLACK PRESS A potential financial situation has turned itself around, however, an offer for assistance from Ponoka County will remain on the table.

Candidates respond Continued from A6

RECYCLE

YOUR PAPER!

He said he enjoyed his time in the political arena, although he admits it was a lot of hard work.

Rock, a minister in the United Church, took the time to chat while on his way back to work. The next job on his to-do list involved helping a couple plan their wedding.

“I have a full time job to get back to,” he said.

He is undecided if he will return to politics in the future.

“I’m not rushing to make any decisions at this time.”

NDP candidate Doug Hart, who trailed behind Rock with 11.4 per cent of the ballots, seemed resigned to the results the polls showed.

“I’m no stranger to not winning elections,” he said.

Hart said he believes Albertans are angry at the NDPs about the current state of the economy.

“I had signs pulverized in Red Deer,” he said. “The signs in Rimbey were fine.

People are more civil in Rimbey, but there is so much anger.”

Hart said he found the election to be gruelling and he is ready for rest, although he plans to continue to chair the NDP rural caucus and be an advocate for rural Albertans.

The situation was regarding a payment request by the contractor responsible for building the new skate park in Rimbey and the possibility that Ponoka County may need to lend some financial assistance.

That potential situation was averted through a Ponoka County council motion that would allow an advance of up to $200,000 to the Town of Rimbey.

The issue was brought to light at the Oct. 13 county council meeting by Reeve Paul McLauchlin, who represents the Rimbey area.

As he explained to council, a member of the Rimbey Kinsmen Club had approached him to explain that the contractor was looking for a payment reportedly close to $62,000 for work that had been done and that payment was due immediately.

McLauchlin was concerned if the payment wasn’t made it would not only hurt the service club, but also the reputation of

the town and the county, so he proposed council could do something in the way of assistance.

“My initial concern is that we are not a bank, but considering Rimbey owns the property and this would be between two governments, a loan could be allowed,” he stated.

“It would be nice if we could do something to help, since we have so much in common and in the manner of continuing our good relations I’m sure we could work it out.”

That’s when the suggestion came about using the annual unconditional grant the county provides to the Town of Rimbey, which works out to slightly more than $200,000.

“As it’s an unconditional grant that is mainly used by them for recreation, that could be used as an advance as it could be refunded or recovered if needed,” said County chief administrative officer Charlie Cutforth.

“As it is an annual payment, we would have the

ability to recover any advance, and if they choose to use a portion of it to pay the contractor then that is their option as we provide it without any conditions on how they use it.”

Council unanimously approved the motion to advance up to $200,000 of the 2016 unconditional grant to the Town of Rimbey.

However, with Cutforth following up the next day with the town, it was determined the financial assistance wasn’t need right now.

“When I was able to reach them the next day, (the town) did appreciate the motion and that we were prepared to do what was necessary, (but) they don’t need it,” added Cutforth.

“They are apparently still in discussions with the contractor and some work still needs to be completed on the project. If they do need help, they will be in contact with us, so we are leaving the motion on the books and the help will be there if they ask.”

margins 4-3 – to approve the newly negotiated fire protection agreement with the county, clearing the path for the county to hire a regional fire chief that will oversee all of the fire departments located in the county including those in the towns of Rimbey and Ponoka.

Ponoka County CAO Charlie Cutforth explained that he sees the post as

more managerial and administrative in nature.

“This individual will provide leadership to the fire departments and mainly deal with day-to-day management along with looking after things such as budgets, capital plans, equipment, facilities and ensuring training and other items are done in an organized manner,” Cutforth told

county council at their regular meeting last Tuesday.

With the Town of Ponoka’s acceptance of the new agreement, the county will be moving quickly to fill the new position.

They received 23 applications for the position and have shrunk that list to four candidates.

The plan is to have the selected candidate in place in November.

“The regional fire chief won’t be there to take over command, it’s anticipated the current fire chiefs of the respective departments and their officers will continue to do the jobs they have been doing,” added Cutforth, “It’s just that now they will have someone new to report to.”

BY TREENA MIELKE A teenage boy fled the premises after a family dispute escalated last Friday and RCMP were called.

Const. Carman Dutz said Rimbey and Sylvan Lake RCMP responded to the rural address after receiving a report of the dispute between the parent and child.

No charges were laid in the incident which occurred northeast of Rimbey around noon on Fr., Oct. 16.

“It was between a parent and a child. The boy allegedly had a knife and made threats.”

Dutz said the boy had left the area by the time the RCMP arrived.

“The teenager is not believed to be a danger to the public and there is no charges being laid.

RIMBEY REVIEW 9

Halloween safety tips In the old days your mom just threw a sheet over your head, cut out two eyeholes, and away you went.

But then the costumes got fancier, the candy got better, and now your neighbour’s yard looks like the set of a Hollywood horror film. Somewhere along the way, Halloween became a competitive sport.

With All Hallow’s Eve falling on a Saturday, there’s bound to be more miniature zombies and minions running wild in the streets this year so drivers need to be extra cautious, especially in residential areas.

And parents can up their game as well, by adapting costumes to be visible in the shadows and teaching children to practice safe trick-or-treating.

Here are some Halloween safety tips to cover off everything but the sugar rush: See and be seen: • Plan a light-coloured costume or add bright reflective strips to be more visible to drivers. Glow sticks can brighten up a dark costume.

• Heavy masks can affect your child’s vision – opt for face paint instead of masks and make sure peripheral vision is clear.

Always lift up your mask to cross the street.

• If your little ghouls are flying solo this year, walk through the route with them early in the week, and have set times for them to check-in.

• Front yard frights are part of the fun, but make sure your walkway and yard are clear of tripping hazards like tools, cords and debris.

• Have a safe, quiet (indoor) place for your pets.

Strangers and costumes may put them on edge.

Be street smart: • Trick-or-treating is more fun with friends.

Make sure your kids travel in a group, stay together, and don’t approach houses that do not have a light on.

• Reinforce that if someone invites them to come in the house or to get into a car to warm up, say thanks but no thanks, and report it to an adult.

• Cross only at crosswalks or safe corners.

Point to indicate your intent to cross, pause to double-check and make eye contact with driver, then proceed only after all traffic is stopped.

Trudeau and Liberals win majority government

BY TREENA MIELKE Oct. 19 was a day which will, no doubt, go down in Canadian political history as the Liberals, in only a few short hours, went from third place popularity to becoming the nation’s official majority party.

The election is over, but the echoes of promises, inuendoes and veiled accusations voiced during the last few months still linger.

Everywhere people are waiting in the wings to see what the future holds.

Rimbey Mayor Rick Pankiw has adopted a wait and see policy. “t’s tough to say,” he said. “Really, it’s too early to see what will happen. Until we see a new budget….”

Pankiw said he was not surprised by the outcome of the vote, but he was hoping for a minority government.

He believes that Justin Trudeau’s charisma was enough to lure the undecided to vote Liberal.

Ponoka County Reeve Paul McLauchlin said the federal election clearly indicates people are ready for change. He noted that his time in politics has taught him that change is inevitable.

“Harper was up against the wall and the people spoke loud and clear. I respect that. I’m getting used to political change.”

McLauchlin noted Ponoka County has maintained a good relationship with MP Blaine Calkins and he expects that relationship to continue.

“Blaine has always been a good advocate for us and it’s nice to continue to have that relationship,” he said.

McLauchlin is on the same page as Pankiw regarding future changes which could be brought about by the new party.

“Time will tell,” he said. “I’m not worried. I expect federal funding will continue.”

Voter turnout in Central Alberta, slightly more than the overal turnout across Canada, was high this year with more than 71 per cent of eligible voters casting a ballot.

The 2015 election was the first one held since the new electoral boundaries were established. Six of the 30 ridings added across Canada were in Alberta.

The new boundaries saw Conservative candidate Blaine Calkins, who had represented Wetaskiwin since 2006, running for the newly formed Red Deer-Lacombe riding.

Calkins, who has repeatedly won at the polls, winning 75.1 per cent in 2006, 77.1 per cent in 2008 and 81.4 per cent in 2011, continued to capture the popular vote, garnering a healthy 70.4 per cent in this election.

Liberal candidate Jeff Rock, a United Church minister, and a novice to the political scene, trailed behind Calkins with 15.4 per cent of the votes.

Veteran politican NDP candidate Doug Hart captured 11.4 per cent of the votes.

Justin Trudeau’s overwhelming victory has left Canadians more than a little curious as to what the future will hold.

But regardless of the emotions following the aftermath of the Liberals landslide victory, Canadians have no choice but to wait and see and hope the change

Ryan and Marie Cabanela, originally from the Phillipines, and now residents of Rimbey exercised their civic right to vote in the federal election Oct. 19. The couple say it is an honor to vote. The Cabanelas, with their children, four-year-old Nicole and 23-month-old lsaiah, were among the voters who cast a ballot at the Peter Lougheed Community Centre.

Playing it safe for Halloween Continued from A9 • Never walk at night with headphones, and avoid instagramming, face-chatting or selfie-sticking unless you are safely away from traffic.

If you have to drive, stay focused: • Stay home, watch a scary movie, hand out treats and leave the car in the garage.

• If you do hit the streets, expect the unexpected.

Watch out for children jaywalking, crossing driveways and stepping out from behind parked vehicles.

• Make eye contact with pedestrians. Masks, costumes and ‘Candy Distraction Disorder’ can reduce a child’s view of the road. If you aren’t 100%

sure, play it safe and give pedestrians the right of way.

• Avoid distractions like cell phones and give Mr. Bluetooth the night off. If you head out to a party, put the keys away and use a designated driver service to find a safe ride home.

Dedicated 2 You!

At the Alberta Horseshoe Pitcher’s Association annual general meeting on October 3 at Wetaskiwin the names of provincial award winners for the province and for all affiliated clubs were released.

This year the Bentley and Lacombe clubs had joined together.

Bentley league nights were on Wednesdays in Bentley and Lacombe league play nights were in Lacombe on Tuesdays with some members playing on both nights.

League play started May 20 and ran through to the end of July. It ended earlier than usual this year when some players, for medical reasons, had to quit.

Hopefully they will be back next year and some new players will join. End of year Provincial Awards for Bentley/Lacombe club league play went to Noel Peterson for high average ringer percent that was 27.8. He also earned club most improved. He improved 5.4 per cent to 21.6 per cent to 27.8 per cent.

Gloria Ellersiek, who earned her five per cent crest, won high game over average with a 16.2 per cent over average game. She threw a game of 20.0 per cent when her aveage was 3.8 per cent.

She was also named the club player of the year because of the enthusiasm and commitment to play that she exhibited and how much she worked at improving her game. She always added fun and laughter to the evening, whether playing in Bentley or Lacombe.

The Bentley club’s men’s’ champion, earning the most points for league play, was Logan Mehls with 52 points and the club’s ladies champion earning the most points for league play with 46 points was Gloria Ellersiek. Points are based on the total number of games played and the number of wins. A handicap system is used.

During the annual Bentley fair, the club was again able to host their tournament thanks to the support from sponsors, volunteers, and dedicated club members.

Sponsors were: the Bentley & District Ag Society, Servus Credit Union (Bentley), Greg & Sandy Beavis, Shir-Al Welding Ltd., Teamworks Fabricating Ltd., Bentley IDA Pharmacy, Crop Production Services (Bentley), Bentley Chiropractic Health Centre, Kal Tire (Lacombe), Gull Lake/Deer Creek Gas Co-op, D & M Concrete Products Ltd. and Sunny 94 FM. The Rimbey Review continues to give the club good coverage.

The club is grateful for the continued use of the Bentley Ag Society storage building and for the town keeping the park and area mowed.

There were five singles classes on Saturdays. Class winners were Steve Moody (40 Foot Men), Lyle Olmstead (Mixed A), Bill Hinds (Mixed B), Stuart Little (Mixed C), Esther Hoerle (Mixed D). The names of these individuals have been engraved on the John Talsma Memorial Trophy.

There were five teams in doubles play on Sunday.

The names of doubles winners Myrna Kissick and junior partner Garrett Christensen will also go on the trophy.

The 2015 Allan Boettger Memorial V.I.P. Award, presented by Pearl Boettger, daughter Sharon Schrauwen, and Hazel Heistad, went to Tammy Christensen from Regina.

Club president is Paul Norvila. Treasurer is Hazel Heistad and secretary is June Norvila. Club statistician is Pearl Boettger. These dedicated volunteers have held these positions for many years.

This was the club’s 42nd year of participating in the Bentley Fair. Plans are to host a tournament next year on August 6-7, but more players are needed.

Club members hope everyone winters well and that they will see some new faces around the courts in the spring.

BY JORDIE DWYER Despite the hopes of those in charge of Ponoka County, the results have simply not been what they would have liked.

Nearly two years ago, Ponoka County took advantage of a program through the RCMP to provide an enhanced officer position that was anticipated to bring more patrols, more coverage and better overall service by the RCMP in the west side of the county as well as help out the local Rimbey detachment.

Unfortunately, as the contract is set to enter the final year of its three-year deal, county administration has not seen any of that occur, and recommended to county council during its meeting last Wednesday, that council let the contract lapse and not renew it when it comes due at the end of 2016.

“We could realistically give the RCMP notice that we would terminate the contract early, but it would be administration’s recommendation to just not renew the contract when it concludes,” stated Ponoka County chief administrative officer Charlie Cutforth, to council during a recent meeting.

“There was no significant changes in the amount of patrols and other things, so it no longer makes sense to continue with the posting.”

County Peace Officer Les Squires, who was at the meeting to present a verbal report on his recent activities to council, said the enhanced RCMP posting has really only been filled for about eight of the past 24 months.

“When the (Rimbey) detachment lost a member, the enhanced position was moved to fulfil the municipal contract and it was left open until the detachment position was filled,” he explained to council.

“It wasn’t getting the bang for the buck the county was hoping for. Plus, we get a lot of complaints on the bylaw side, so it may be a better option to spend that money on hiring someone to do strictly bylaw enforcement.”

Reeve Paul McLauchlin added the intent at the time the county entered into the contract was that the position would improve visibility and enforcement, especially at a time when there was a tremendous about of oil and gas activity in the region.
