City pushes back annexation time frame Page 5 behind a ’50s retro diner, have all signed up to be part of Junction 42, located at the Highway 2-Highway 42 interchange just east of Penhold.

The economic boost provided goes far beyond additional tax revenues, said

county Mayor Jim Wood.

“I believe this area is going to provide a lot of jobs, a lot of opportunity, a lot of business,” said Wood.

Gasoline Alley has proven to be a big success, and Wood sees the development of a

similar draw as an important part of the county’s long-term strategy.

“We have many years of development and future capacity in this area,” he said.

“We look at this as way to offset the annexations that the city will have some day in our industrial areas.

MAGDALENE HOUSE

Non-profit wants to help sex workers find a better path

BY LANA MICHELIN ADVOCATE STAFF

T

hey are part of society’s invisible labour pool, working in perilous conditions, with few rights.

An estimated 170 sex workers operate in Red Deer, based on information from police and local human service agencies, said Tammy Rogers, executive director of the local non-profit group Magdalene House.

She added most of these women conduct their business out of sight, soliciting clients through the internet and selling their bodies in private homes, motel rooms, or through shady outlets.

Rogers differentiates between the sex workers who have a level of control over their bodies and get to keep some proceeds of their transactions, and women who are completely under the thumbs of their pimps/boyfriends.

Sex workers in the latter group are coerced into handing over all their earnings, often made to feel they should do their so-called boyfriends this “favour,” said Rogers, who has 25 years experience working with various vulnerable populations.

She refers to this group as trafficked women.

Rogers maintains sex trafficking is not what’s shown in the movies, as 98 per cent of these sex workers are Canadian citizens, and they were not abducted from poor countries.

But most still began selling their bodies at age 13 or 14, moving between different communities to stay under the radar.

Rogers added the majority of these women struggle with addictions and are treated like “slaves”

Tammy Rogers, executive director of Magdalene House, said most of these women conduct their business out of sight, soliciting clients through the internet and selling their bodies in private homes, motel rooms, or through shady outlets. by men who assert control by preying on their low self-esteem and their need to feel loved.

“They know what to say to form what these women think is a relationship. Through that connection,

the trafficker takes advantage.”

Magdalene House operated for 18 months in 2015/16 as a recovery centre for sex workers who wanted to change their lives.

Rogers said 11 women were accepted into the residential program, but only three of them stayed for the duration because the pull of their addictions was too great.

The non-profit had to shut its doors due to a lack of funding in 2016.

But Rogers and board president David Bouchard have been launching fundraisers to reopen the facility — this time as a hub for day programs to help sex workers get housing, counselling, education and the life-skills training needed for a brighter future.

Rogers knows this will be a tough sell — both to a community that doesn’t see evidence of a problem, and the sex workers themselves.

Research has shown these women make, on average, eight attempts to leave their pimps before they sever ties for good, added Rogers.

She believes Magdalene House, like similar facilities in Edmonton and Calgary, will be able to connect with this marginalized group and help impacted women access services.

Bouchard hopes to get funds from the Community Initiatives Program under the new United Conservatives government. He noted this is the first provincial government to come up with an official plan for dealing with sex trafficking, so he’s optimistic.

A fundraising Freedom Walk to raise money for Magdalene House will be held Sept. 7 in the Bower Ponds in the picnic area at Great Chief Park.

Grandmother graduates from high school

BY SUSAN ZIELINSKI ADVOCATE STAFF

G

raduating from high school at age 64 opened a Red Deer grandmother up to a new career and a once-ina-lifetime opportunity to receive her diploma alongside her graduating grandson.

Heidi Cowell and her grandson Carter Cowell, 18, both graduated from North Cottage, an alternative high school program at Red Deer Public Schools last week.

Heidi said when her two children attended high school, it reminded her how much she regretted not finishing her studies.

She was scheduled to graduate in 1972, but dropped out in May of her graduating year after getting engaged a few months earlier. She got married that summer.

Last year, staff at Carter’s school heard about her aspirations and encouraged her to enrol.

Heidi said she was nervous to go back to class, but the students at North Cottage became family.

“They just opened their arms and their hearts. There was just no age barrier. We just melded together and had a good time and encouraged each other and helped each other,” Heidi said.

Homework was exactly how she remembered, but this time, she did it, she said with a laugh.

Heidi Cowell, and her grandson Carter Cowell, are both class of 2019 graduates, who recently earned their diplomas from North Cottage.

car washes, lube shops and other motorist-oriented businesses.

“I don’t think it will be long before we start to see a hotel out here and those types of activities,” said Wood.

“I think in this rural area, it would be a very unique opportunity for farm equipment dealers and those kinds of suppliers for the farming community.”

Phase 1 is only a portion of the 270-acre site. The county is playing the long game when it comes to plans to develop other phases, said county manager Curtis Herzberg.

“We’re not looking for a specific return on investment. We’re looking to put facilities and services in this part of the community that need it.

We know we will be successful with that in the long run.”

Miles Davis, of service station development company K.A.R. Holdings, said as Gasoline Alley has developed, it no longer has room for the highway truckers that used to line up on a service road that was removed last summer.

“Gasoline Alley has evolved so much from what it used to be,” he said.

“I think through discussions with Alberta Transportation, and the county, and ourselves, we really identified that need and a place for commercial traffic to be able to stop.”

The service station expected to open in mid-November will be designed with plenty of space for RVs, campers and holiday trailers.

“We’re built so the travelling public, whatever you’re driving, you’ll be able to easily manoeuvre and navigate around the site.”

As well, there will be cardlock fuelling and a pair of electric vehicle charging stations, provided through a partnership with Suncor.

Jolene Bjarnason plans to add a retro touch to Junction 42.

Bjarnason, husband Grant Blake and their six children, will pour their energies into Diner 2/42, a ’50s-style diner with a menu full of homemade favourites.

“It’s won’t be just the diner itself, it’s going to be the whole experience,” said Bjarnason.

“Saturday night will be the car hop nights, so the girls will roller skate out to the cars, just like the old A&W used to be.”

Bjarnason said they are even planning to bring the drive-in movie back on Saturday nights, with an inflatable screen.

The family wants to make the restaurant a destination eatery beyond those travelling by on the highway.

AGRICULTURE

China, U.S. threaten beef industry: ag minister

BY SUSAN ZIELINSKI ADVOCATE STAFF

C

hina’s decision to temporarily close its doors to Canadian beef may be just the start of headaches for the industry, as talk about country-of-origin labelling for beef is resurrected in the United States.

“We heard grumbling that Democrats in the U.S. are trying to bring back country-of-origin labelling on cattle,” said Agriculture Minister Devin Dreeshen Thursday.

“We’ve won at the World Trade Organization on that fight numerous times. It’s an issue that should have been dead and buried. That has about a billion dollar price tag attached to it of negative impact to our cattle industry.”

Tuesday, China suspended all Canadian meat imports, claiming a restricted additive was found in a batch of Canadian pork products. China said counterfeit veterinary health certificates were attached to the batch of pork exported to China.

Dreeshen said Canada has a lot of allies that will stand up against country-of-origin labelling, and added “we’re definitely going to get our backs up again.”

“In the first quarter of last year, we exported to mainland China $48 million worth of beef. It’s still relatively significant, but the U.S. is still our largest beef customer.”

“It’s frustrating to see markets close for whatever reason. We’re do-

China said counterfeit veterinary health certificates were attached to the batch of pork exported to China. ing everything we can to make sure that market access remains open.”

He said everyone was a little stumped when China lumped beef with the temporary ban on pork. The Canadian Border Service Agency, RCMP and Canadian Food Inspection Agency are investigating China’s claims, which will take time.

“Farmers in central Alberta are frustrated by it, and rightfully so.

There’s speculation that this is a politically motivated manoeuvre. Many

people come up to me and say, ‘Why farmers? Why are we paying the price for this?’ There’s no good answer to that.”

The ban comes during a diplomatic dispute over the arrest of Chinese executive Meng Wanzhou in Vancouver.

Canadian farmers already face a ban by China on canola. Forty per cent of canola was going to China, and so the industry has had to look for other markets, he said.

“Now with beef and pork, having

this temporary suspension on export certificates, it’s tough. It’s just a really difficult situation, and that’s why the provincial government is doing everything it can to assist the federal government in dealing with China to try and resolve this.”

Dreeshen said Alberta does have foreign offices around the world to help industry get into certain markets and make new sales.

ANNEXATION

City pushes back time frame for next annexation

BY LANA MICHELIN ADVOCATE STAFF

Q

uestions about how fast Red Deer will grow is causing the city to extend its exploration phase for annexation.

City council passed a motion this week that gives administrators eight more months to study the city’s boundaries with Red Deer County.

“Annexation is a complex process

that will only benefit from further exploration and refinement of data and collaboration,” said city manager Allan Seabrooke.

He feels the eight-month extension will also defer the financial costs of an annexation to a time when the local economy and city growth are, hopefully, stronger.

Council wants to ensure there’s enough land available within city limits for long-term development.

Based on the city’s incremental growth rate in recent years, and an

unknown recovery time for Alberta’s economy, administration believes it needs more time to improve the data collection necessary for decision-making, as well as to collaboratively work with the county.

The intermunicipal development plan recommends the city have within its boundary a 30 to 50 year supply of developable land for growth.

Updated data indicates the city only has 22 years of available land for development.

“Our population has stabilized

over the last several years,” said Mayor Tara Veer, who feels the timing could be right “to plan for our future return to a growth economy …

It’s important that we look ahead and ensure we have appropriate and sufficient land supply.”

Administrators will report back to city council in eight months with annexation recommendations that will be identified during this exploration process.

BEAVERBROOK VIMY PRIZE

Olds student off to Europe to study war history

BY LANA MICHELIN ADVOCATE STAFF

O

lds student Noah Korver is one of two Alberta youths — and 14 young Canadians — chosen to do overseas research as part of this year’s Beaverbrook Vimy

Prize.

The 16-year-old will head to Europe in August for a two-week educational program focusing on First and Second World War history of Canada, Great Britain and France.

Korver will attend lectures, visit former battlefields, trenches, underground tunnels, monuments and museums – and even meet a few of the remaining Second World War veterans during his stay in Belgium and France.

He is partnered with a Manitoba student and assigned a joint project on racism during the conflicts. Other study projects include research on a soldier from the First World War who is buried in France.

Korver is already working with the Olds Legion to determine if there are any local connections.

He said the immersive trip will be a continuation of his life-long interest in the two World Wars.

“I’ve always been interested in my uncle’s stories from the Second World War, when he was a little kid in Holland,” said Korver.

The student, who will start Grade 11 at Olds High School this fall, is intrigued by the “amazing stories of kindness and humanity,” and that so many soldiers were just a few years older than he is now.

He was selected for the program through a multi-

ALBERTA NEW IN BRIEF

Province to offload crudeby-rail contracts, raises oil quotas for August CALGARY — Alberta’s United Conservative government says it will try to offload crude-by-rail contracts signed by the previous NDP government to private companies by this fall, confirming an election promise.

“We have said from the beginning that shipping crude by rail is something that the private sector is in the best position to be doing itself,” Energy Minister Sonya Savage said Thursday.

“Our government is taking the next step in shifting the former government’s crude-by-rail program to the private sector.”

The Alberta Petroleum Marketing Commission has hired CIBC Capital Markets to help oversee the sales, she said.

Premier Jason Kenney told reporters earlier this month at the Global Petroleum Show in Calgary that ”confidential conversations” with the private sector were being held and that the province wanted to put the contracts in private hands.

Former premier Rachel Notley announced in February the province would spend $3.7 billion and lease about 4,400 rail cars to move up to 120,000 barrels of Alberta oil per day to market by rail.

‘OUR GOVERNMENT IS TAKING THE NEXT STEP IN SHIFTING THE FORMER GOVERNMENT’S CRUDE-BY-RAIL PROGRAM TO THE PRIVATE SECTOR.’ — SONYA SAVAGE ENERGY MINISTER

The province also announced Thursday it would ease its oil production curtailment program by 25,000 barrels per day in August.

It cited growing crude-by-rail capacity, declining oil inventory levels and improved efficiencies in export pipelines for the move.

Last week, the National Energy Board reported Canadian crude-byrail exports in April reached 236,000 bpd, a 40 per cent increase over March, but still down from the record high of 353,800 bpd in December.

The new Alberta production limit in August will be 3.74 million bpd, versus the initial January limit of 3.56 million bpd, the province said.

The limits were imposed after discounts on Western Canadian Select bitumen-blend oil jumped to more than US$50 per barrel compared with New York-traded West Texas Intermediate last fall.

The difference is now about US$13.70 per barrel, according to oil brokerage Net Energy Exchange.

THE BIN

Web series examines religious extremism

BY LANA MICHELIN ADVOCATE STAFF

W

hen Red Deer filmmaker Jason Steele had a free weekend last summer, he decided to make a short, suspenseful movie.

He looked around for a claustrophobic setting to help ramp up the tension and found an empty grain bin on his father’s farm.

As there wasn’t time for script writing, Steele assembled a cast of mostly female actors with improvisational talents. He wanted them to make a web series that would provoke discussion or even push some viewers’ buttons.

A 10-episode series that eventually sprang from that initial weekend of filming is called The Bin. It tells of what can happen when a religious extremist attempts to forcibly impose his views on others.

“I believe religion gives people hope and direction,” explained Steele, but when carried too far, it can also fuel wars and oppression.

“Converting people has always rubbed me the wrong way,” he admitted.

“While I believe there’s value in religion and spiritual beliefs, this is touching on a darker side …”

The series, shot sporadically in Red Deer County until last spring, opens with cash-strapped Val (played

by Luciana Eve), considering fast ways to make a buck.

She approaches an escort agency seeking employment and discovers several women who worked there have gone missing.

Val impulsively sets out to find out what happened to them — and walks into a dangerous situation, said Steele.

The dramatic series “is about the typical wrong choices that are made

The actor and director, who’s worked with Central Alberta Theatre, Red Deer Players, Terry Shane Murder Mysteries and The Hub on Ross, is the recipient of the 2019 emerging artist award from the Red Deer Arts Council.

Besides planning a zombie film this fall, Steele also wants to make more web serials — and help other

filmmakers distribute their projects online.

He’s exploring opportunities on YouTube, as well as looking at developing an independent films app or web channel that can also run advertisements for revenue.

need to be shut down as soon as possible because they present an unacceptable risk to the Great Lakes,” Nessel said.

Nessel said she acted after it became clear talks between Enbridge and Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer had broken down. Whitmer was pushing to finish the tunnel in two years, while Enbridge was insisting it could not be done before 2024, when it would decommission the existing pipes.

“The continued operation of Line 5 presents an extraordinary, unreasonable threat to the public because of the very real risk of further anchor strikes, the inherent risks of pipeline operations and the foreseeable, catastrophic effects if an oil spill occurs at the Straits,” Nessel said.

The pipelines are part of Enbridge’s Line 5, which carries 23 million gallons (87 million litres) of crude oil and propane daily.

Michigan AG sues to shut down oil pipeline LANSING, Mich. — Michigan’s attorney general sued Thursday to shut down twin 66-year-old oil pipelines in the Great Lakes, saying they pose an “unacceptable risk” and the state cannot wait five to 10 years for Enbridge Inc. to build a tunnel to house replacement pipes running through the Straits of Mackinac.

No pipeline fireworks at premiers meeting

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

E

DMONTON — Canada’s western and northern leaders pushed Thursday for reducing trade barriers and building trade corridors while avoiding a bunfight on the contentious Trans Mountain pipeline.

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney and his B.C. counterpart John Horgan amicably agreed to continue to disagree on the pipeline expansion project that would carry Alberta oil to the West Coast.

Horgan even made a joke about being the lone New Democrat at the table with Kenney, Saskatchewan’s Scott Moe and Manitoba’s Brian Pallister, all leaders of conservative governments.

“I wore a blue suit so I could blend in,” Horgan said as he and the other leaders spoke to reporters at the end of the one-day meeting in Edmonton.

“I think Premier Kenney and I are off on the right foot.”

There has been friction between B.C. and Alberta over the pipeline project.

Kenney restated that Alberta is prepared to use provincial legislation to limit oil and gas exports to any province he sees as standing in the way of pipelines — a so-called turnoff-the-taps law.

Horgan said his government will

Motocross club fined for race that killed threatened trout

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

L

ETHBRIDGE — A motorcycle club in southern Alberta has been fined for a race that saw bikes roar through creeks, killing or endangering fish including the threatened Westslope Cutthroat Trout.

The Brooks Motocross Club and a member of its executive were both found guilty last December of contravening the Fisheries Act and Species at Risk Act. Provincial court Judge Jerry LeGrandeur fined the club $45,000 and the David French, its executive director, $25,000.

The club and French contravened the acts by allowing motocross bikes to race through streams in the Racehorse Creek area of the Crowsnest Pass in August of 2014.

The bikers killed a number of bull trout, as well as Westslope Cutthroat Trout, which are designated a threatened species.

The Crown said during the trial

by the proponent, and we will continue to assert our jurisdiction and hold the federal government accountable,” said Horgan.

“This issue has not been, in my opinion, about British Columbia and Alberta.”

Kenney said, “I made it clear to Premier Horgan that if we see from any province obstruction of the movement of our products from this prov-

ince in a way we think violates the Constitution, we will take action.

“I hope it doesn’t come to that and I believe we’ve begun a productive, professional and respectful relationship.”

But there were no fireworks at the closing news conference like last year, when the pipeline issue led then-Alberta premier Rachel Notley to opt out of signing a document from the meeting.

The premiers did find common ground on issues such as economic corridors, reducing trade barriers and recognizing professional credentials from province to province.

“I think we agreed it makes no sense that a nurse or a doctor from B.C. shouldn’t be able to have that certification recognized in Alberta and vice versa,” said Kenney.

Kenney said the corridors include everything from electricity grids to natural gas lines, highways, railways and pipelines.

He said those plans will be pursued at the full meeting of premiers at the Council of the Federation in Saskatoon next month.

Pallister’s efforts to have the premiers unite against Quebec’s law banning civil servants from wearing religious symbols did not make it on the formal agenda of the meeting.

Pallister said he wouldn’t give up the fight.

that French was supposed to have built bridges for the bikers to cross the streams, but Crown witnesses who took photos of the race testified there was only one permanent bridge.

“It is much more than a slap on the wrist in the context of this offender, but less than crushing; serves to deter both generally and specifically, making it clear that even small corporations will pay a significant price relatively speaking for such regulatory offences,” LeGrandeur said in court Tuesday.

The judge said French was aware of the regulations and he was in charge of ensuring bridges were built over streams so racers would not disturb or kill fish.

“I conclude that Mr. French’s moral culpability is high,” LeGrandeur said. “He was, based on his evidence, in charge of bridges, however, he did nothing to address those concerns.”

In addition to the fines, LeGrandeur ordered French and the club to inform readers of the convictions and fines under the acts.

Calgary, Edmonton targeted for rental program File photo by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

Newly founded Bird Canada says Alberta will be the launching point for its line of dockless electric-powered scooters, but it plans to expand to eventually offer scooter-sharing and other ‘commuter solutions’ across the country. The company says Kelowna, B.C., is likely to be the next city to see its products.

ALGARY — A company backed by Toronto Raptors founder John Bitove says it will bring e-scooter rentals to Calgary and Edmonton in early July.

Newly founded Bird Canada says Alberta will be the launching point for its line of dockless electric-powered scooters, but it plans to expand to eventually offer scooter-sharing and other “commuter solutions” across the country. The company says Kelowna, B.C., is likely to be the next city to see its products.

Bird Canada CEO Stewart Lyons says it negotiated the exclusive licence to offer device-sharing services in Canada from California-based Bird, which was founded in 2017 and has grown to operate in 120 cities, mainly in North America and Europe.

Lyons says the company decided to come to Alberta first because it anticipates that exceptions to provincial regulations requested by the cities of Calgary and Edmonton will be granted soon, thus allowing the e-scooters to be operated on public roads.

He says customers will be able to use the machines at a cost of $1.15 to start and 35 cents a minute after, a

rate which he says makes the service competitive with public transit. The company expects to put between 500

and 1,000 e-scooters in each city.

The devices have attracted complaints in some cities of littering sidewalks and being tossed in streams, but Lyons says his firm is committed to have enough staff to track and return wayward e-scooters.

“We don’t anticipate having those kinds of problems,” he said.

“That won’t be an issue for us.

Nowadays, what Bird typically does and what we will do, we have fulltime people who go out in the middle of the day or late at night and move the scooters around. Back in the day, they didn’t do that.”

Bird Canada says it has committed capital from Bitove’s private investment company, Obelysk, and two other Canadian investment firms.

RAYMOND

Town becomes solar-powered ‘net zero’ community

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

R

AYMOND — What began as a friendly rivalry between two southern Alberta towns has ended with what may be one of the most extensive programs of solar power anywhere in the country.

Raymond, an agricultural community of about 4,000, has operated nine municipal buildings and all of its street lights by the sun since last fall. It sells excess solar power to the electrical grid when it can and buys it back when it needs to.

It all started in 2017 when town

council heard the nearby community of Cardston was planning a solar project. That rankled a bit, said Greg Robinson, Raymond’s economic development co-ordinator.

“We have a bit of a competitive rivalry,” he laughs. “We just wanted to do better than them.”

And so they have.

Raymond has become what is believed to be Alberta’s first “net zero” community. The money spent on power from the grid in January is expected to be recouped in the sunny days of July.

“It’s ebb and flow,” Robinson says. ”At the end of the day, we’re hoping

it’s sized properly to be a wash.”

The greenhouse gas savings are the annual equivalent of taking 169 cars off the road.

Solar panels are leased from Calgary power utility Enmax at a total installed cost of $2.8 million. About $630,000 of that came from a provincial grant under a program, which, said Robinson, ”made it very easy to say yes.”

The grant brought the installed cost of the solar panels to less than $2 per watt, well under the average cost for installation.

The program’s future, however, is uncertain.

The Municipal Climate Change Action Centre, created in 2009, has spent about $1.5 million out of a five-year $6.9 million allocation for solar projects that mostly came from the province’s carbon tax. New Premier Jason Kenney turfed the tax as one of his first acts in government.

“We have no concerns about our ability to fund existing programs,” said centre director Trina Innes. “The government’s still exploring ideas for the future right now.”

Kenney’s United Conservative government also has promised to end subsidies for wind and solar projects.

The province was unable to provide information on the future of the action centre’s funding.

Meanwhile, solar is growing across

Alberta.

Leduc, just south of Edmonton, is finishing a 1.14-megawatt installation that will power the town’s recreation centre. Brazeau County in central Alberta is running its fire hall, water treatment plant and administration with solar. Cardston, the town that sparked Raymond’s project, has plugged its arena and civic centre into the sun.

The action centre is involved in 74 solar and other projects in 31 municipalities. Robinson recently made a presentation to 22 other Alberta communities.

Installation projects have become routine, said Jason Atkinson of Enmax, the Calgary power utility that has worked with communities on their solar installations.

Software uses 100 years worth of sun and snow data to predict a solar “harvest.”

“We have over 1,000 sites out there,” Atkinson said. ”We have been very accurate. We provide a production guarantee to our customers.”

It’s the business of the future, he added.

“It’s just where society’s going. We want to be out in front of it.”

Robinson acknowledges initial skepticism in Raymond.

“There was ‘This seems too good to be true,’” he said. “But the math makes total sense.”

China’s meaty feud with Canada

BY HEATHER SCOFFIELD ADVOCATE NEWS SERVICES

A

t any other time, China’s concerns about Canada’s meat could be contained with barely a ripple.

The Chinese spotted some fraudulent permits for pork products from Canada and found traces of a banned additive – problems that could normally be dealt with by an investigation by Canadian authorities, a crackdown on the technicalities and some meetings between officials in both countries to assure the rules are followed in the future.

But with China’s worries about Canadian pork escalating quickly into a ban - which has now extended, without much explanation, to beef as well – Canadians have little choice but to take the meat measures as another sign of aggression.

Canadian farmers, food processors and diplomats alike are exasperated and increasingly anxious for a solution, despite government strategists arguing for a patient, technocratic approach to working out the issues one by one.

It’s not just that two Canadians are being held in Chinese prison in retaliation for Canada’s house arrest of Meng Wanzhou, chief financial officer of the Chinese technology giant Huawei, who was detained by Canada last December on behalf of the United States.

It’s also that China’s revenge is costing Canadian exporters and farmers billions of dollars, seriously disrupting supply chains for Canadian companies and forcing the federal government to fund rescue packages for affected industries. Quebec Premier François Legault was only the latest to demand Ottawa step up, asking publicly on Wednesday for financial help for the province’s pork industry - just like the canola industry did this spring when hit with a Chinese ban.

For context, Quebec is the country’s biggest pork producer, followed

by Manitoba and then Ontario.

Canadian meat exports to China were worth $611 million in 2018, about 9.3 per cent of all Canadian meat exports, and most of that – about $514 million worth - was pork. That’s a recent phenomenon. Chinese demand for Canadian pork has soared recently because African swine flu has devastated China’s own hog industry, driving up demand for imports over the past couple of years. Canadian beef exports to China, while smaller, have also soared over the past few months. So Canadian meat producers and processors have had a bit of a Chinese-fuelled windfall – one they quickly embraced and will miss now that it’s gone.

The farmers and processors will possibly be able to find new markets elsewhere eventually, especially since Japan and other Asian countries have just opened up their

borders under the new Trans-Pacific trade agreement that Canada has signed, but the Americans have not.

But that takes time, and frustration at being caught up in a battle for economic supremacy between China and the U.S. is mounting – partly because the pain doesn’t stop there.

The tit-for-tat tariffs have prompted many Canadian exporters and importers alike to re-examine their trading patterns and try to dispute-proof their businesses. Global economic growth has slowed. And the risks of a deeper slump are omnipresent.

In Calgary, Gordon Leaf imports granite for gravestones, and feels he has been unfairly hung up in the global dispute. His containers of stone from China have suddenly been subjected to repeated and costly inspections by Canadian border officials. The Canadian Border Services Agency, in response to a complaint from Leaf, said its officials had to make sure there was no soil contamination - something Leaf had never encountered before.

The complaint is anecdotal. The federal government insists it has not undertaken any new official import controls against Chinese goods.

But Leaf’s conclusion that he is unfairly caught up in global forces is a feeling that is spreading in more official circles, too – the feeling that China’s trade measures can no longer be dealt with on a technical level.

Scheer’s climate change plan fails to live up to possibilities

ENVIRONMENT

BY THOMAS WALKOM ADVOCATE NEWS SERVICES

A

ndrew Scheer is right when he says there are ways to fight climate change without imposing a carbon tax. Unfortunately, the Conservative leader hasn’t found them.

His climate change plan, recently released with much fanfare, is a mishmash of ideas — some good, some irrelevant, most ineffective.

Missing from the plan is any concrete notion of how Canada under a Conservative government would meet its Paris greenhouse-gas emission targets.

This is too bad, because in questioning the conventional wisdom around carbon taxes (or what its proponents call carbon pricing), Scheer was onto something.

Economists tend to love carbon pricing, because it uses market forces. Conservative thinkers, such as Reform Party founder Preston Manning, support it for the same reason.

They like the fact carbon pricing bypasses the heavy hand of government. It does not require,

for instance, a ban on gas-guzzling SUVs. It merely makes explicit the real social costs of using fossil fuels to power them.

Once consumers are faced with the real cost of gassing up their vehicles, the theory goes, they will respond by driving less or by switching to some other form of transportation, such as electric cars.

Carbon pricing is neat, elegant and — in theory — the most efficient way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Like other solutions beloved by economists, it assumes people have perfect information, act rationally and will adjust to the new price instantaneously and painlessly.

In the real world, however, people are not always so co-operative.

Even when government promises to rebate the proceeds of any carbon tax, they remain skeptical.

This is the anti-tax mood that Conservative politicians like Scheer and Ontario Premier Doug Ford have managed to exploit.

Yet opposition to carbon taxes need not mean giving up on the

fight against global warming. As Mark Jaccard, a respected climate change economist at Simon Fraser University, has pointed out, there are other tools available.

Writing in the Globe and Mail last year, Jaccard said that what he called flexible regulation would work just as well, if not better.

He argued that in British Columbia, regulations requiring B.C. Hydro to close generating plants fuelled by coal and natural gas have proved to be three times more effective than the province’s famed carbon tax.

Similarly, he wrote, California regulations on electricity generation and automobile fuel account for the bulk of carbon-emission reductions in that state. Its capand-trade carbon pricing system accounts for only 15 per cent of reductions.

Had he wished, Scheer could have built on Jaccard’s critique to come up with a compelling alternative to the federal Liberal government’s carbon price strategy.

Alas, he did not.

LETTER

A solution to standoff between China and Canada

Maybe there’s a way for Canada to resolve its diplomatic impasse with China arising from the arrest of Huawei’s CFO, Meng Wanzhou.

Efforts on the part of our government to resolve the ever-growing fiasco are not working. Canada doesn’t have the clout to tell China to behave in a civilized manner.

So, a couple of scapegoat Canadians will continue to languish in Chinese prison and our canola and meat shipments will rot in dry dock. And, since Meng’s hearing doesn’t even start until sometime in 2020, there’s more retribution coming.

Meng was detained in Vancouver at the request of the U.S. government. It wants her extradited to face charges relating to Huawei’s breach of U.S./Iran embargo rules.

It has been suggested Canada

unilaterally discontinue the extradition proceedings.

While this would solve our problem with the Chinese, it would be contrary to Canada’s polite policy of upholding the rule of law and would invoke the wrath of America.

So that isn’t going to happen.

We’re going to have to buy ourselves out of this one. What needs to happen is for the U.S. to withdraw its extradition request.

Why would they do that? Because Canada would quietly offer the U.S. a concession on an entirely unrelated matter that is currently irritating the U.S. president.

Maybe agree to call the new NAFTA by Donald Trump’s preferred moniker, USMCA. Also, this is going to have to be a tri-lateral deal, so the Chinese are going to have to buck up as well.

Perhaps a minor compromise

relating to China’s ongoing trade war with the U.S. Trump is willing to quickly resolve almost any dispute – provided he can claim victory. And he doesn’t care if it’s apples or bananas up for grabs, as long as he only gives up one and the other guy pays two.

Win, win, win. Canada’s two improperly detained citizens return home, canola and meat start getting unloaded in Shanghai – and Canada’s PM can boast Canada has remained on the high road.

Meanwhile, Meng can go back to China and continue doing whatever nefarious activity she was accused of – and she gets to keep the Vancouver mansions.

As for Trump? He’ll be short an apple or two, but the larder will be loaded with bananas to tweet about.

CRIME

Man wasn’t confessing in prayer: defence

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

C

ALGARY — A defence lawyer has argued his client was not admitting he killed his young grandson when police recorded him praying for forgiveness.

Allan Perdomo Lopez is on trial for manslaughter in the death of fiveyear-old Emilio Perdomo, who court heard died of a blunt-force brain injury five months after he came to Canada from Mexico.

During the trial, the Crown played a police recording from the family minivan of the accused praying in Spanish.

“I wanted to help that child with all my soul, Lord. I didn’t want to kill that child,” Perdomo Lopez said, according to an English transcript of the tape.

Defence lawyer Darren Mahoney said in his closing arguments Thursday that the remark should not be taken as a confession.

“This Crown has presented this prayer as if it is a smoking gun,” he said. ”However, taken in proper context, this is not the — quote — ‘confession’ that the Crown is asking the court to find it is.”

The prayer was one of 11 police recordings presented at the trial from the accused’s vehicle, home and phone.

Mahoney urged Queen’s Bench Justice Richard Neufeld to evaluate each intercept in its entirety — not just the sections he suggested the Crown cherry-picked to construct its narrative.

Mahoney told court that Perdomo Lopez is a superstitious man who

He said his client was actually praying for forgiveness for going to Mexico and bringing a curse into his house — not for killing the boy.

“This isn’t an apology for killing Emilio,” said Mahoney. ”This equally consistent with Mr. Perdomo apol-

ogizing for bringing the child from Mexico and the terrible consequences that resulted.”

The lawyer also said the grandfather did not mean the word “kill” literally, as he uses the word in another intercept to describe being punished by his own father in the past.

The trial heard the boy was taken to hospital unconscious on the evening of July 9, 2015, and underwent emergency brain surgery. Emilio never woke up and died eight days later.

Prosecutor Shane Parker said in his closing arguments last week that the boy was brought to Canada for a better life, but instead was abused for weeks by his grandfather.

Court was shown photos of bruises and scars all over Emilio’s body in various stages of healing. The injuries were not visible in photos of the child

when he was in Mexico or shortly after he arrived in Canada.

Mahoney said there are reasonable conclusions Neufeld can draw other than that Perdomo Lopez killed the boy, including that it was an accident or that someone else in the household could have assaulted him.

A forensic pathologist who conducted Emilio’s autopsy, Angela Miller, classified the death as undetermined, meaning there was not enough information to deem it a homicide or an accident.

The Crown also called neuropathologist Leslie Hamilton, who concluded it was a homicide.

Mahoney said the police sought out the second opinion of a “far junior hired gun” when they didn’t like Miller’s conclusion.

PIPELINE SPILL

Geothermal project announcement spoiled for oil company

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

C

ALGARY — A junior oil company is announcing government funding for an environmentally friendly geothermal power project at the same time that it is cleaning up a spill of oil and water from a pipeline in northern Alberta.

Calgary-based Razor Energy Corp. said Thursday it will receive $5 million from Natural Resources Canada’s Clean Growth Program and $2 million from Alberta Innovates to assist in development of a $15-million to $20-million geothermal plant capable of generating three to five megawatts of electricity.

The announcement had been planned for some time and it’s a coincidence the company reported the spill of more than 10,000 litres of oily water on Wednesday to the Alberta Energy Regulator, said CEO Doug Bailey.

The pipeline leak was discovered after a routine aerial inspection found dead vegetation in the right-of-way above the buried pipe, he said, adding it may have been leaking for some time and the total amount spilled isn’t known yet.

“We do flyovers with helicopters and drones for anomalies, for salinity in soil and so on. And for whatever reason, this wasn’t caught,” Bailey said in an interview.

“It’s not linked to this press release at all. This is a press release that we had planned to do before the long weekend sets in so we can get people’s attention.”

Regulator spokesman Shawn Roth said preliminary estimates indicate the spill affected an area of about 2,000 square metres but no impacts to wildlife have been reported.

“The AER is on site assessing the incident and working with the company to ensure all safety and environmental requirements are met as the company cleans up the release,” he said in an email.

Liquids produced from the company’s wells near the town of Swan Hills are 95 to 99 per cent water — the oil is skimmed off the top in an oil battery and the water is pumped back into the underground formation, explained Bailey.

The oil-water mixture is at a near boiling temperature at the wellhead, which makes using its geothermal energy potentially viable, said Lisa Mueller, Razor’s vice-president of new ventures.

“You put your hand on the pipe and feel how hot it runs and you realize this heat energy has value,” she said. “We believe (the project is) technically viable and economically sustainable at this time.”

The company is also planning to build a 15-megawatt natural gas power plant to try to match total generation to its electricity needs at its oilfield, although the power would be sent to the provincial grid and withdrawn as needed.

Air Canada has reached a deal to buy Transat AT Inc. for $520 million. The airline will pay $13 per share for the travel company.

Air Canada reaches deal for Transat

ONTREAL — The board of directors of Transat AT Inc. has approved a $520-million takeover offer by Air Canada, but the deal faces legal and regulatory scrutiny along with resistance from major Transat shareholders.

The companies announced Thursday that Air Canada will pay $13 per share for the travel company.

Under the agreement, Air Canada said it plans to preserve the Transat and Air Transat brands and keep the tour operator’s head office and key functions in Montreal.

In approving the Air Canada offer, the Transat board turned down a rival bid by Group Mach Inc., a Quebec real estate developer that offered $14 per share or $527.6 million for Transat.

The deal with Air Canada may still face an obstacle in Transat’s biggest investors.

Letko, Brosseau and Associates and PenderFund Capital Management, which jointly own a 22.06 per cent stake, have said they would vote against the agreement if the purchase price remained at $13 per share.

The agreement requires approval from twothirds of Transat shareholders to go through. Quebec’s Fonds de solidarite FTQ, Franklin Templeton Investments, and the Caisse — Quebec’s pension fund manager — are also among the top five investors, collectively holding a 26.18 per cent stake.

Air Canada and Transat command a combined 60 per cent slice of the transatlantic market from Canada, overlap on some sun destinations and maintain a firm hold on Montreal air travel, triggering a forthcoming review from Canada’s Competi-

tion Bureau.

Analyst Doug Taylor of Canaccord Genuity highlighted “substantial regulatory scrutiny” as a potential hurdle.

Observers say a successful bid is unlikely to yield fewer choices or higher ticket prices, with international carriers as well as Canadian competitors such as WestJet, Flair Airlines and Sunwing Airlines Inc. still in the mix. Air Canada Vacations competes in the leisure market with all three companies.

Both Air Canada and Transat sought to downplay the threat of market dominance.

“Travellers will benefit from the merged companies’ enhanced capabilities in the highly competitive, global leisure travel market and from access to new destinations, more connecting traffic and increased frequencies,” Air Canada chief executive Calin Rovinescu said in a release.

“For our clients, it will offer even more choices and possibilities,” said Transat chief executive Jean-Marc Eustache, who co-founded the company’s predecessor in the early 1980s.

In addition to absorbing a competitor, Air Canada’s pending acquisition of Transat’s newer, all-Airbus fleet will come as a relief to the country’s biggest airline. Air Canada’s two-dozen 737 Max 8 jets — grounded along with 737 Max aircraft across the globe after two recent crashes killed 346 people — comprise about 20 per cent of its narrow-body fleet, costing the company cash as it leases less efficient Airbus A320s and three Embraer E190s.

Analysts have also pointed to the uphill battle Transat fought against large airlines that are plugged in to carrier alliances and sprawling huband-spoke systems, which enable more flights, higher passenger volumes and more efficient use of aircraft.

Airline group advocates more training

BOEING 737 MAX

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

M

ONTREAL — A trade group representing hundreds of airlines is renewing its push for additional pilot training and co-ordination among global aviation regulators to ensure that the Boeing 737 Max is safe before it is allowed to fly again after two deadly crashes.

If additional training is required, including the possible use of scarce MAX flight simulators, it could come at a tremendous cost to Boeing and further delay the plane’s return.

Airlines are already adjusting their schedules with the expectation that the plane will remain grounded for an extended period.

Southwest Airlines said Thursday that it has taken the Max out of its schedule for another month, through Oct. 1. Southwest is the fourth-biggest U.S. carrier by revenue and has more Max jets — 34, with about 250 more on order — than any airline in the world.

Southwest’s announcement was the latest case of a major airline dialing back its hopes for a speedy return of the Max. United Airlines did the same thing Wednesday. The plane was grounded worldwide in mid-March, but airlines hoped that Boeing would fix problematic flight-control software quickly enough so that the planes could be back in service in June.

The Max’s return took another detour this week

Mary Kemmis, mary.kemmis@blackpress.ca

after U.S. government test pilots working in a flight simulator discovered another flaw in the plane’s computer systems that could push the nose down.

That condition, called runaway stabilizer trim, occurred in the Max accidents in Ethiopia and Indonesia that killed 346 people where pilots were unable to control the planes, according to preliminary reports by investigators.

The Federal Aviation Administration is requiring Boeing to fix the new flaw, a step that is expected to add from one to three months to the plane’s return.

The Washington Post reported Thursday that before the Max began flying, the FAA repeatedly found safety lapses at Boeing and ordered the company to fix them, but Boeing failed to do so. In 2015, Boeing agreed to pay a $12 million settlement and make changes to ensure that it was complying with safety regulations.

Boeing has been under intense scrutiny since October, when a Lion Air Max plunged into the Java Sea off Indonesia shortly after takeoff. Boeing began updating the flight-control software implicated in the crash — it pushed the plane’s nose down more than two dozen times based on faulty readings from a single sensor.

The update was not complete, however, by the time an Ethiopian Airlines Max crashed in March.

Again, the nose-down pitch occurred. Pilots initially followed Boeing’s prescribed response, but it didn’t work, possibly because the plane was flying too fast.

Pilot training has emerged as a central part of fixing the plane. Boeing wants computer-based training, and FAA technical experts agree that would be sufficient.

Others, however, believe pilots need to practice with the new Boeing software in flight simulators.

Earlier this month, Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, who landed a crippled airliner safely on the Hudson River in 2009, told a House subcommittee that pilots should get simulator training.

That, however, would pose a problem for Boeing and the airlines — it could take weeks or months to find simulator time for every pilot who flies the Max. Southwest and American Airlines each have thousands of Boeing 737 pilots, but neither airline has a Max simulator. Boeing has one in Miami and a similar machine in Seattle.

At a meeting in Montreal of regulators and airline representatives, the head of the International Air Transport Association, Alexandre de Juniac, made an appeal for co-ordination between aircraft operators and regulators.

De Juniac and his airline group are trying to repair the fragmented regulatory approach to the Max. In March, other countries grounded the plane despite the FAA’s initial view that it was safe even after a second crash.

Regulators in Europe, China and Canada have indicated they want to conduct their own reviews of the FAA’s 2017 certification of the plane, which could further complicate and delay the Max’s return to flying.

SHAW Q3 RESULTS

Less drag from Corus stake Freedom Mobile grows

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

C

ALGARY — Shaw’s Freedom Mobile wireless service added nearly 62,000 subscribers in its latest quarter, and improved customer retention, showing it’s providing real competition to Canada’s Big Three carriers.

The Calgary-based mobile company — which operates wireless networks only in Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia — remains far smaller than any of its national rivals and retains a newcomer’s feistiness.

In fact, Shaw Communications Inc. claimed Thursday that Freedom’s rivals have been forced to adjust their pricing strategy in response to its Big Gig plans.

The Big Gig plans offer unlimited gigabytes of data for a fixed price, although instead of charging overage fees Freedom slows the data transfer speeds after the monthly limit is exceeded.

Toronto-based Rogers Communications was the first of the Big Three to adopt a similar strategy, with new Infinite plans that went into effect on a permanent basis on June 13.

Bell and Telus quickly responded

with short-term offers that were similar but not exact copies of Rogers or Freedom.

Although none of the Big Three credits Freedom for their moves, Shaw executives proclaimed during their third-quarter conference call on Thursday that the upstart has fundamentally changed the competitive landscape.

“It’s now absolutely clear that Canadian wireless prices are coming down and that Freedom Mobile is the catalyst for this change,” chief executive Brad Shaw said.

“We have worked hard to reset Canadians’ expectations of their wireless providers and the competition is learning to follow our lead.”

He noted Freedom has also halted the erosion of its pre-paid subscriber base, which fell by 16,900 in its fiscal second quarter, while adding 61,000 postpaid subscribers. Postpaid churn also fell to a Freedom record low of 1.18 per cent.

Revenue from wireless services was $178 million (up 22 per cent from a year ago) while revenue from equipment sales fell by nine per cent to $73 million because more customers used their own devices.

Darren Graham back at RDC as Kings coach

D

arren Graham was a bit surprised when he discovered the RDC Kings basketball coaching position was open.

“I was,” he said. “Clayton (Pottinger) has a great track record and is well known around basketball circles so I was surprised he was moving on.”

At the same time he felt it was a Danny perfect fit as he looks to take another step in his coaching career.

Rode “Considering I played there and wanted to push myself to be better with my development as a coach I felt I’d throw my hat in.”

The RDC selection committee felt he was a perfect fit as well.

“A lot of good things happened in the last three weeks,” added Graham.

“My family and I decided to go for this and were accepted. I got a teaching job at Notre Dame (High School), we sold our house in Edmonton and my kids were on a wait list at a school and are now enrolled.”

Darren was born and raised just north of Stony Plain and played two seasons (1996-98) with the Kings after graduating high school.

“John Johnston recruited me and Ryan Atkins and myself came down and played the two years. It was a great experience. I learned a lot as a man and as an athlete.”

Graham played a strong role in the Kings first ACAC championship in 1998.

He then attended and played for Concordia University in Edmonton receiving a science degree.

He received his education degree at the University of Alberta and has been teaching and coaching at Millwoods Christian School the past 11 years.

“I coached at all levels and high school for the last six,” he explained.

As well he joined Reagan Wood at Concordia as an assistant coach with the men’s basketball program and has been there the last four seasons.

He’s also has done some work with the NCCP program and done several courses.

Putting his high school experience with his time with Concordia and the NCCP together and the 41-year-old Graham felt it was time to add another chapter to his coaching career.

“It’s something I’ve been working toward,” he said. “Between the experience of coaching, being an assistant in the ACAC and Reagn’s mentorship it prepared me for the challenge of being head coach at Red Deer College.”

Darren has been in contact with the majority of his returning players and held a couple of scrimmages. ”Clay did a fantastic job of leaving the tool shed well equipped,” he said. “We have a veteran group returning and could have three or four fifth-year players.”

Heading the group is fifth-year wing and ACAC scoring champion Spencer Klassen.

“He’s a great young man and having him around makes my transition easier.”

At times it’s tougher to get the import players to remain with a coaching change. Darren doesn’t see that.

T

he Red Deer Rebels looked to the blueline at the CHL Import Draft.

With the 25th overall selection, Red Deer selected 2002-born left defenceman Christoffer Sedoff of Finland. The rearguard, listed at six-foot, 184-pounds, played for HIFK Helsinki B last year. In 20 games at the Finish Junior A level, he recorded three points in 32 games.

“He’s a guy that NHL teams are very aware of and will be looking to come watch playing for our team this year, so we’re thrilled to pick him where we did,” said Rebels assistant GM Shaun Sutter.

“He’s a real smart player. He’s a competitive player and he defends real well. He can be a hard guy but he’s smart with the puck and makes a good first pass. He’s still developing strength and is still growing… there’s some upside to his game, but he’s not a guy you have to push.”

After all the mystery surrounding the 2019 CHL Import Draft, Sutter noted that they are 100 per cent confident Sedoff, who is eligible for the 2020 NHL Draft, will report to Red Deer in August. That addition will help fill the void left by 19-year-old Russian defenceman Alex Alexeyev, who will likely start the year with the AHL’s Hershey Bears.

The Rebels first saw the defensive defenceman at the 2018 Hlinka Gretzky Cup in Red Deer where he played four games for Finland. From there, they mostly followed his development from afar.

Sedoff has played 23 games internationally for Finland, recording two assists. The up-tempo, yet physical style of play of Finland’s national program is also something the Rebels coaching staff was interested in with Sedoff.

“For Finish players, with the way they play, the transition is very smooth because they play a certain style and we’re excited to get a guy who will fit right in,” said Sutter, adding Sedoff played in the Hlinka Gretzky Cup as an under-age player.

“Like any young player, he’s going to have ad-

justments to make. He speaks some English, he’s had real good coaching.”

As a 17-year-old, Sedoff should fit in with a strong core group of 2002-born players that includes Chase Leslie, Ethan Rowland, Dallon Melin and Jordan Borysiuk along with 2003s Jayden Grubbe and Kyle Masters.

“He fits in now and in the future, with some of the good players we have coming up in our organization. We have some real good young players and a real good core that we’re hoping we can build around. So we’re pretty excited,” added Sutter.

The Rebels are still awaiting word on the return of 2018 import pick, Oleg Zaytsev.

Red Deer set to host Alberta Regional Rugby Championships The top under 16 and 18 male and female rugby players from across Alberta will converge on Titans Rugby Park this weekend.

Whitehead catches two TDs to lead Blue Bombers past Eskimos Blue Bombers 28 Eskimos 21 WINNIPEG — Lucky Whitehead caught a pair of touchdowns to help the Winnipeg Blue Bombers win their first home-opener in five seasons with a 28-21 victory over the Edmonton Eskimos on Thursday.

Matt Nichols threw touchdown passes of 75 and 41 yards to Whitehead, who showcased his speed and elusive skills in front of 25,336 fans at IG Field.

Nic Demski and Andrew Harris also had TDs for Winnipeg (2-0). Justin Medlock was good on four converts.

Sean Whyte’s seven field goals, ranging from 10 to 45 yards, accounted for all of Edmonton’s (2-1) scoring.

Nichols completed 13 of 21 pass attempts for 200 yards with three TDs and one interception. Trevor Harris was 35-of-54 for 345 yards with no TDs and no picks.

The Bombers led 14-3 after the first quarter, 1412 at halftime and 28-12 after three quarters.

Demski did all the heavy lifting for Winnipeg’s first touchdown. He deked and cut his way across and down the field for a 35-yard gain and then capped it off with a seven-yard run into the end zone at 8:29 of the first quarter.

The Eskimos responded with Whyte’s 30-yard field goal at 13:50, but Winnipeg quickly struck again.

Nichols flung the ball to Whitehead on the first play of their next possession.

He got behind coverage, hauled the ball in and ran another 39 yards to tally a 75-yard TD with under a minute left in the opening quarter. The speedster played 30 games with the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys in 2015 and 2016.

Whyte had all the scoring in the second quarter, connecting on a trio of field goals, two after Winnipeg turnovers.

He was good on a 20-yarder at 11:55 and then added another from 10 yards out after Harris fumbled the ball and the Eskimos took over at Winnipeg’s 20-yard line.

Nichols had a pass tipped and the ball went into the hands of defensive back Brian Walker. The turnover resulted in Whyte booting a 45-yard field goal as time expired in the first half.

Bombers rookie running back Brady Oliveira was carted off the field late in the second quarter after injuring a leg during a kickoff.

Winnipeg got back on track with its first possession of the second half after a successful coach’s challenge led to an Edmonton pass-interference penalty. Harris caught a five-yard TD pass at 2:20 to boost the lead 21-12.

Whitehead recorded his second TD of the game at 10:19 of the third after eluding a number of defenders as he zigged and zagged his way into the end zone.

Whyte added three field goals in the fourth quarter from 31, 38 and 33 yards, the latter making the score 28-21 with 2:02 remaining.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17 ”From what I see we’ll be fine between the guys returning and a transfer.”

But Darren feels he needs “to add a couple pieces to fill out his roster in a next few weeks.”

Being around Wood at Concordia, which has finished third and second the last two seasons in the ACAC, has given Graham exposure to recruiting.

“Reagn is tapped into the basketball community and well connected, so what I’ve learned from him will definitely help. What is important is to build relationships and those relationships will bear fruit.

Steinauer isn’t concerned about complacency after big win

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

H

AMILTON — Orlondo Steinauer isn’t concerned with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats getting too full of themselves following their emphatic victory last week over the Toronto Argonauts.

Hamilton improved to 2-0 on Saturday with a lopsided 64-14 road win over Toronto in the Argos’ season opener. The Ticats scored TDs on six straight possessions and their 50-point margin of victory tied the club record.

Heady stuff heading into a homeand-home series with the Montreal Alouettes (0-1), which begins Friday night at Tim Hortons Field. The two teams will square off at McGill Stadium on July 4.

They’ll meet a third time Oct. 26 in Montreal.

“When you have a win like that, I think you could run into difficulties if you don’t have the right personalities in your locker room,” Steinauer said.

“But I feel good with where we’re at.

“If this was our fifth or sixth blowout and we were 9-1 and it was past Labour Day, you might worry about some complacency or things like that but two wins is two wins. Now we’ll see, we’ve got to go play this game and we’ll see how we respond after a big win like that. But I didn’t feel it, guys are hungry and chomping at the bit to get going.”

Hamilton’s offence accumulated over 600 yards versus Toronto. Quarterback Jeremiah Masoli finished 23of-31 passing for 338 yards and three TDs while rushing for another.

Bralon Addison had six catches for 109 yards and three TDs while Brandon Banks registered seven receptions

for 105 yards. Banks also returned a missed field goal 113 yards for a touchdown while Sean Thomas Erlington ran for 109 yards on 12 carries while adding three catches for 56 yards.

And that could spell bad news for a Montreal defence that allowed over 600 total yards in the Alouettes’ season-opening 32-25 road loss in Edmonton on June 14 and comes to Hamilton minus linebacker Bo Lokombo (ribs) and safety Taylor Loffler (knee), both starters.

Loffler, a three-time CFL all-star with Winnipeg, had 10 tackles in his Montreal debut.

And Vernon Adams Jr. is expected to start at quarterback for Montreal with incumbent Antonio Pipkin (ankle) out. Adams replaced Pipkin in the second half versus Edmonton and rallied the Alouettes from a 17-point deficit into a 25-25 tie.

Adams finished 7-of-10 passing for 134 yards with a TD and interception while rushing for 13 yards on three carries.

“Vernon Adams is a very unique guy,” said Hamilton defensive lineman Ja’Gared Davis. “He’s one of the most mobile guys up here, he also has one of the better arms (something) he doesn’t get a lot of credit for.

“He’s a guy who can extend plays and make something happen out of nothing. He’s going to make plays … he’s going to do what he does best. We just have to go out there and do what we do best. Hopefully at the end of the game we have one more point than they do.”

Hamilton had four sacks, two interceptions (one Rico Murrary returned 37 yards for a TD) and a fumble return against Toronto.

The Ticats have six sacks overall,

Roughriders post $1.467M profit for 2018

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

R

EGINA — The Saskatchewan Roughriders registered a profit of nearly $1.5 million last season, the CFL club announced Thursday.

The Riders held their annual general meeting Wednesday at Mosaic Stadium. According to chief financial officer Kent Paul’s report, the franchise’s profit was $1,467,062, up from $781,930 last year.

Saskatchewan posted a 12-6 record in 2018 to finish second in the West Division standings. The club hosted the conference semifinal, losing 23-18 to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

But that playoff game netted the

Riders an additional $1.8 million in revenue, resulting in an $800,000 profit.

Paul’s report also stated total gross revenues were $40.4 million, compared to $37.3 million last year. The Riders also led the CFL in tickets sold — 30,357 per game — and scanned attendance (27,547 per game).

The Roughriders also earned $17.2 million in ticket sales compared to $16.7 million in 2017-18. And merchandise sale revenues were up slightly, ending at a CFL-best $6.8 million.

The Riders’ board of directors elected Eric Dillion and Greg Yuel as new members. Dillon is the CEO of Conexus Credit Union while Yuel is the president/CEO at PIC Investment Group Inc.

Hamilton Tiger-Cats coach Orlondo Steinauer isn’t worried the team’s massive win last week has gone to his players heads as they meet the Alouettes Friday. standing second only to Edmonton, and have forced a CFL-high 10 twoand-outs.

Hamilton linebacker Simoni Lawrence remains eligible to play following his appeal of a two-game suspension levied by the CFL last week. Lawrence’s arbitration hearing is slated for July 9, meaning he’d be able to play in both games versus Montreal.

The six-foot-one, 231-pound Lawrence has seven tackles, two interceptions and two sacks this season.

The two teams split their two-game series last year, with each winning on the road. Hamilton captured a 50-11 victory at McGill Stadium before Montreal earned a 30-28 decision in its regular-season finale with the Ticats resting a number of their starters having already cemented a playoff berth.

With a victory, Hamilton can improve to 3-0 for the first time since 2004.

Montreal finished last season at 5-13 and missed the playoffs for the fourth straight season.

Haiti’s counterattack could be ‘lethal’ in quarterfinals: Herdman

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

H

aiti may be a surprise contender for this year’s Gold Cup, but the coach of Canada’s men’s soccer team says the squad shouldn’t be underestimated.

The unbeaten Haitians (3-0) have proven they have a lethal transition attack and that could spell trouble for Canada (2-1) when the two teams face off in the quarterfinals of the regional championship on Saturday in Houston, John Herdman said.

Haiti’s athleticism and speed could pose problems, he added.

“For Canada, it’s definitely a red flag,” Herdman said. “We may possess quite a lot in this game but in those moments we lose the ball, we’ll have to be on guard.”

Haiti, ranked 101st in the FIFA rankings, posted a surprising 2-1 victory over Costa Rica on Monday to win a Gold Cup group for the first time ever.

The 78th-ranked Canadians dominated groupstage matchups against Martinique and Cuba, and dropped a 3-1 decision to Mexico, the top-ranked team in CONCACAF. Canadians Derek Cornelius and Jonathan David were named to a list of the top-11 players of the tournament’s group stage on Thursday.

Cornelius, a 21-year-old centre back for the Vancouver Whitecaps, is learning elements of the international game and is ahead of other players his age, the coach said.

“He’s growing well through the tournament, he’s reading situations better and he’s becoming more fluid in our structure, in our attacks,” Herdman said of the Ajax, Ont., native.

WOMEN’S WORLD CUP

France may not have trophies, but it’s hardly an underdog PARIS — The United States has its ranking and its trophies, and that’s all the motivation France needs.

The Americans face the French on Friday night at the Women’s World Cup, a match that’s been described as a final in the quarterfinals.

It really has it all: The defending champions against the upstart hosts.

The City of Lights.

A sellout crowd.

Haiti may be a surprise contender for this year’s Gold Cup, but John Herdman, the coach of Canada’s men’s soccer team, says the squad shouldn’t be discounted. gium, has been an offensive force, putting up three goals against Cuba in a 7-0 win, two against Martinique in a 4-0 triumph and an assist against Mexico.

“That’s what forwards are there to do. I think this Gold Cup for him has been a genuine opportunity to show that he’s a goal scorer,” Herdman said of the 19-year-old striker.

Saturday’s quarterfinals contest could have some added meaning for David, whose family hails from Haiti and who lived in the Caribbean nation as a small child.

“They’ve got a great trophy cabinet and we still have everything to prove,” French captain Amandine Henry said.

The only downside?

The country is in the midst of a heat wave and temperatures are expected to soar into the 90s, although a 9 p.m. local time start should bring some cooling.

Les Bleues, ranked No. 4 in the world, finished atop its group before overcoming a determined challenge from Brazil on Sunday night to reach the quarterfinals.

France also reached the quarterfinals at the 2015 World Cup in Canada but fell to Germany on penalties after a 1-1 draw.

The team’s best finish at the tour-

There may be some extra emotion for the teen when the pre-game anthems play, Herdman said, but the coaches have no concerns about David being distracted.

“I’m sure when game-day comes, Jonathan will be absolutely focused on enjoying the game, but more importantly, getting goals. He’s just laser focused in that space,” he said.

Everyone in the locker room knows what they need to do to succeed on Saturday and what the stakes are, Herdman said.

“I think coming into this game, it’s just very clear,” he said. “It’s must win. It’s must win to move to the semi final.”

At the last Gold Cup in 2017, Canada was ousted in the quarterfinals with a 2-1 loss to Jamaica.

That result hangs heavy over the group, Herdman said.

“These are the moments our team has been questioned,” said Herdman, who took over Canada’s men’s team last year after a seven-year run with the Canadian women’s squad. “(The team has) got a goal, they’re very clear on that goal. And I’m pretty confident that they’ll give their best without any distractions to get the result for Canada.”

Mexico faces Costa Rica, Jamaica meets Panama and the United States battles Curacao in the other quarterfinals at the Gold Cup, which has been held every two years since 2003.

Canada hasn’t advanced to the semis since 2007.

Saturday’s game marks the first Canada-Haiti contest since the 2007 Gold Cup. Canada beat Haiti 2-0 that year in Miami.

Canada is 7-2-1 all-time against Haiti, with the only loss coming in their first game in 1973.

nament was fourth in 2011 after losing 2-1 in the third-place match to Sweden.

France had lost 3-1 in the semifinals to the Americans.

But France has seen its profile rise considerably in recent years, coinciding with the growth of its domestic professional league. Seven players on France’s roster play for Lyon, which routed Barcelona 4-1 to win the women’s Champions League for the fourth straight year and sixth time overall.

“From where we were four years ago, and where France was four years ago, I think both of us are much stronger teams. I think just the women’s game in general has grown tremendously,” U.S. star Megan Rapinoe said.

“I guess the task for each team is to be the team that is growing as fast as the game is, keeping up on that and even being the one that is pushing the game forward.”

France is seeking to become the first nation to simultaneously hold the men’s and women’s World Cup trophies. The men won last year in Russia.

The United States already has three World Cup trophies, most of any nation. The Americans emphatically beat Japan 5-2 to win in Canada, highlighted by Carli Lloyd’s hat trick.

Vying for a fourth title in France, the United States faced a physical knockout-round opener against Spain.

Rapinoe scored on a pair of penalty kicks for the 2-1 victory in Reims on Monday night, although the game-winner in the 75th minute was the result of what many thought was at best minimal contact between Spain’s Virginia Torrecilla and Rose Lavelle. The foul was confirmed after video review.

“Yes, they do have some shortcomings, but so does every team in this tournament,” French coach Corinne Diacre said.

“Spain played very well indeed.

But we know the United States will be difficult opposition.”

Until Jennifer Hermoso scored for Spain, the United States had not conceded a goal in eight straight competitive matches dating to the 2016 Olympics, outscoring opponents 44-0.

It was the first goal the United States had allowed this year since a 5-3 win over Australia in an April friendly.

The Americans have played the French 23 times, with France winning just three. But the last three matches have tilted toward France, with two wins and a draw. The last meeting was a friendly in January, when Kadidiatou Diani — who wasn’t named to France’s World Cup roster — scored twice in a 3-1 victory.

“It’s impossible to have any pressure. Quite the opposite, in fact. It’s additional motivation for us. We’re coming up against the best team in the world. So the only pressure we have is to have a good performance,” Diacre said.

Emma Greenwell stars in “The Rook,” premiering Sunday on Starz Canada.

An amnesiac spy seeks her identity in the dark Starz thriller ‘The Rook’

By George Dickie A woman wakes up in the rain next to London’s Millennium Bridge with no memory of how she got there or why there are a slew of latex-gloved corpses surrounding her.

All she knows is something terrible has happened and people are trying to harm her.

The woman’s name is Myfanwy and as played

by Emma Greenwell (“Shameless,” “The Path”) in the psychological spy thriller

“The Rook,” premiering Sunday, June 30, on Starz Canada, she comes to discover that she’s a high-ranking operative for the Checquy, a Secret Service-like British agency that protects those with supernatural powers from the dangerous world of highdollar trafficking. As bits of her memory return, she starts to uncover the truth about her past and her own previously dormant abilities, thus forcing her into a choice of reverting to what she was or embarking on a new beginning.

Greenwell, a newcomer to science fiction, embraced the chance to build from the ground up a character who has no identity and no memory, filling in the blanks of her personality as filming progressed. But the British actress admits that also came with challenges.

“I tried not to pay attention to all the jargon and I really wanted to discover things as they happened,” she explains.

“And so, yeah, it was bizarre.

It definitely got very confusing toward the end and we were

shooting very much out of sequence.

“We were shooting episodes three, five, seven and six all at once and jumping around, and I was like, ‘OK, so at this point I know that ... .’ Because it’s a puzzle and it’s a mystery but without also having any knowledge and like at which point do I remember and all these things.”

The role also afforded Greenwell the chance to try her hand at action, another genre to which she is a stranger. Some scenes didn’t go so well, such as in the

opening sequence of Sunday’s premiere where she trips over one of the bodies and fractures her wrist.

“I had warned them,” Greenwell says with a laugh.

“I was like, ‘I’m very accidentprone’ and I think they thought I was being dramatic.”

In another, the crew disguised a stunt double as Greenwell to elicit a genuinely shocked reaction from a group of teenage extras when the woman fell from a garage roof.

“One girl lost it,” Greenwell says. “She was like freaking

out because she’d thought I’d actually fallen off the roof because they hadn’t seen us shoot it previously. They just came in for that. Yeah, if was pretty good. Kind of mean but also great footage. Honest reactions.”

Created by Lisa Zwerling (“When We Rise”) and Karyn Usher (“Prison Break”), “The Rook” has a talented cast that also includes Joely Richardson (“The Tudors”), Adrian Lester (“Trauma”), Olivia Munn (“The Newsroom”), Ronan Raftery (“The Terror”) and Jon Fletcher (“Genius”).

Ticket scalpers take aim at Nova Scotia’s unique celebration of military music

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

H

ALIFAX — Online ticket scalpers are making trouble for one of Nova Scotia’s biggest musical

events.

The Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo, which opens on June 29 in Halifax, has grown to become the world’s largest indoor celebration of military music and culture.

Though the colourful event is 40 years old, it’s been only in the last few weeks that online scalpers have start-

ed offering tickets at inflated prices and misleading people that shows were sold out.

Executive producer Scott Long says his team is fighting back by eliminating the print-at-home option for ticket purchasers.

Long says anyone who has already purchased an online ticket can expect to see the show, but those now buying tickets through Ticket Atlantic will be required to pick up their tickets at Scotiabank Centre.

Show organizers say online resellers will be cut out of ticket sales because they are unable to offer oldschool paper tickets.

Mouse that roared: Disney characters win local union shakeup

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

O

RLANDO, Fla. — The mouse that roared was heard.

Months after workers who play Mickey Mouse and Goofy at Walt Disney World threatened to leave the Teamsters union because of what they called “horrible misrepresentation,” General President James Hoffa has appointed two associates to take over the local union in Orlando, Florida.

A letter from Hoffa was posted Monday to the doors of the Local 385 union hall, saying he had started a process known as trusteeship.

Local 385 represents costumed character-performers, truck drivers and other Walt Disney World workers.

A Teamsters spokeswoman says an election will be held within 18 months so members can choose new leaders.

Separately, investigators with another, independent Teamsters office are scrutinizing allegations that Local 385’s leaders created false records and committed embezzlement and obstruction.

T

he latest albums from Shawn Mendes, Carly Rae Jepsen and Jessie Reyez have been longlisted for the Polaris Music Prize.

Last year, the prize went to operatic tenor Jeremy Dutcher whose Wolastoqiyik Lintuwakonawa melded his own voice with century-old recordings of people speaking the Wolastoq language. The album went on to win a Juno Award earlier this year.

The Polaris winner will be awarded $50,000 on Sept. 16 at a gala presentation held at Toronto’s Carlu, which will be webcast by CBC Music. The other short list nominees each receive $3,000.

Allman Betts Band feels staid on ‘Down to the River’

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

S

outhern comfort blues-rock has never been about bluster, but Allman Betts Band could have ramped things up a notch on Down to the River, a lacklustre

album from a group that should have more to offer.

Devon Allman and Duane Betts, the sons of

legendary Allman Brothers Band co-founders Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts, have been around enough all-star talent that southern rock is certainly in their DNA. But the listener is left searching a bit through middling tracks that provide little more than a vague tapestry of southern trope.

Shinin’ is about as close as we get to that sweet southern rock groove. There are nifty lead guitar riffs and nice slide guitar work from Johnny Stachela. And the down-tempo self-titled track is

well done with a bluesy cool.

But songs like Try and Melodies Are Memories feel tired and listless. It’s one thing to play with a reverence to early ’70s rock. It’s another to be mired in its often uninventive delivery and fall victim to its patterned complacency.

Allman Betts Band can certainly play southern rock. But they’re playing an old version of it and bringing nothing new to the table. They should and could have reached for more.

Directors guild changes eligibility rule to favour theatres

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

L

OS ANGELES — The Directors Guild of America is changing the eligibility rule for its top award in favour of theatrical releases over streaming.

The DGA says Wednesday that the board voted unanimously on Saturday to require that films premiere in theatres first before becoming available on any other platform. This rule change will take effect for the upcoming DGA awards cycle.

All of its previous feature film nominees would still qualify under the new rule, including last year’s winner Roma, which was a Netflix movie that

debuted in theatres before being made available to streaming subscribers. Some Netflix films, however, are released in theatres and on the service simultaneously. It’s known in the industry as a “day and date” release.

“A first-run theatrical release is a distinctive element of our feature film award,” said DGA President Thomas Schlamme in a statement. “We celebrate the important role that theatrical cinema has played in bringing together audiences as they collectively experience films as the filmmakers intended them to be viewed.”

The award has also been renamed: It is now called Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Theatrical Feature Film.

Notably, the new rule will not affect the firsttime feature film award category.

The change comes amid a broader industry-wide debate over the awards eligibility of streaming releases versus theatrical releases. Companies like Netflix and Amazon will often debut their awards hopefuls in theatres anyway in order to qualify for the Academy Awards.

The film academy voted this year to maintain its rule that a film must have a “minimum seven-day theatrical run in a Los Angeles County commercial theatre, with at least three screenings per day for paid admission” to be eligible. Technically the film academy does allow for “day and date” releases to be nominated as long as the aforementioned requirements are fulfilled too.

Trump claims his support among Latino voters is rising Sheryl Crow says 2008 fire destroyed all her master tapes

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ASHINGTON — President Donald Trump claims his policies to stop illegal immigration are helping his standing with Latino voters, and he is taking undue credit for uniting families who were separated at the border.

Trump made the statements in a sometimes combative interview airing Thursday on the Spanish-language network Telemundo.

Trump says Hispanics want toughness at the border and says his poll numbers with the increasingly important voting bloc have “gone way up” because he’s delivered.

He says Hispanics “don’t want people coming and taking their jobs” and “don’t want criminals to come because they understand the border.”

The most recent AP-NORC poll conducted in mid-June showed Trump with 26 per cent support among Hispanics. The White House has not provided the polling to support Trump’s comments.

L

ONDON — Singer Sheryl Crow says the original tapes of albums such as Tuesday Night Music Club and the track All I Wanna Do perished in a 2008 fire at Universal Music Group.

Crow told the BBC Wednesday that her master tapes and back-ups were destroyed in the blaze and that she only discovered the loss after a New

York Times report revealed the extent of the damage.

Crow says the fire “feels a little apocalyptic” and that she didn’t “understand the coverup.”

A group of artists, including Soundgarden and estates representing Tupac Shakur and Tom Petty, have sued. The artists allege that Universal failed to protect music ruined in the fire and inform them of the extent of its impact.

Universal did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Cardi B pleads not guilty to new charges in strip club brawl

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

N

EW YORK — Grammy-winning rapper Cardi B was arraigned on new felony charges in connection with a fight last year at a New York City strip club.

“Not guilty, sir, honour,” said the rapper dressed

in a dark blue and light pink pantsuit with her hair tinted blue as she pleaded in state court to two

counts of attempted assault and other misdemeanour charges, including harassment, criminal solicitation, conspiracy and reckless endangerment.

She didn’t speak to reporters as she entered and left the courthouse, but waved at a small crowd of fans who shouted her name and took video on their cellphones.

The 26-year-old Cardi B, whose real name is Belcalis Almanzar, and her entourage argued with a bartender at Angels Strip Club, police have said.

They say a fight broke out in which chairs, bottles

and hookah pipes were thrown, causing minor injuries to the woman and another employee.

Cardi B had originally only been charged with misdemeanours. Prosecutors presented the case to a grand jury after she rejected a plea deal that would have given her a conditional discharge.

Two other defendants in the case who allegedly participated in the brawl also pleaded not guilty Tuesday to similar charges.

The judge set Sept. 9 as the next court date, but the rapper does not have to appear.

Barron’s latest offering ‘Black Mountain’ stars his ex-mob enforcer

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

L

ike a lyricist, Laird Barron excels at manipulating the tones and cadence of language. Like a Gothic novelist, the mood he creates is often bleak.

“You don’t teach a child to become a killer by rote lectures,” he writes. “To create a predatory machine, you foster an appreciation of the natural world and our minuteness upon its canvass… We are as nothing and that permits us to do anything.”

It comes as no surprise, then, that Barron wrote both poetry and horror before turning to crime fiction with 2018’s Blood Standard, a novel that intro-

duced former mob enforcer Isaiah Coleridge. At the start of that violent book, Coleridge appeared to be a predatory machine; but, by its conclusion, he vowed that from then on he would kill only those who have it coming.

Barron’s new novel, Black Mountain, finds Coleridge working as a private investigator in the Catskills mountains of upstate New York. There, the local mob boss hires him to find out who brutally killed two organized crime strong arms_and why.

As Coleridge digs into the case, he learns that many other victims, mostly derelicts and prostitutes, have been murdered in a similar fashion.

Soon, his suspicions focus on another retired hitman, a mysterious psychopath known as the Croatoan, the name of a Native American tribe to which

he may or may not be related.

But the case proves to be far from straightforward. The Croatoan would be an old man now. Is he even still alive? Could he be killing with the help of an assistant? Could the murders be the work of a copycat? Before long, it gets murkier with tendrils leading to a beautiful woman from a powerful family, her unscrupulous father, a team of mercenaries, a multinational corporation, and a government cover up.

When he manages to sleep, Coleridge is terrorized by a black wolf in dream sequences that are evocative of early Stephen King. But unlike Barron’s first novel, most of the violent action occurs off stage.

Kehinde Wiley to unveil sculpture in Times Square ‘Fixer Upper’ couple plans $10.4M Texas development plan

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

N

EW YORK — Artist Kehinde Wiley will unveil his first monumental public sculpture in New York’s Times Square this fall in response to Confederate statues nationwide.

Times Square Arts, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and gallery owner Sean Kelly announced last week that the bronze Rumours of War sculpture features a young black male dressed in urban streetwear mounted

atop a horse.

The project originated when Wiley saw Confederate Gen. J.E.B. Stuart’s monument in Richmond, Virginia.

Wiley is known for his paintings of black Americans and his commissioned portrait of President Barack Obama, displayed at the National Portrait Gallery. He says the new statue’s inspiration is war and “an engagement with violence.”

Rumours of War will display in Times Square from Sept. 27 to December before finding a permanent home at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts.

ACO, Texas — Former Fixer Upper hosts Chip and Joanna Gaines have introduced a $10.4 million plan to expand on the popular shops they operate in their Texas hometown of Waco.

The Waco Tribune-Herald reports there will be a new “retail village” at the Magnolia Market at the Silos featuring more shops, a relocated historic church, a whiffle ball field and

other attractions.

Construction is already underway on a portion of the development in downtown Waco. Magnolia draws an estimated 30,000 visitors a week.

The plan submitted to the city envisions the project as an “economic catalyst” for Waco.

The couple was made famous by HGTV’s Fixer Upper home improvement show, which ended last year.

It was announced in April that the Gaineses will launch their own Discovery-affiliated television network next summer.

Witness says ‘snitching’ talk preceded Nipsey Hussle killing

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

L

OS ANGELES — Court transcripts show that rapper Nipsey Hussle and the man charged with killing him had a conversation about “snitching” shortly before the rapper was shot.

In grand jury transcripts unsealed Thursday, a witness testifies that the rapper told Eric Holder of rumours that Holder had been snitching about

the Rollin’ 60s gang, and said he should take care of it.

The witness, Hussle’s friend Herman Douglas, testified that he, Hussle and Holder had all been affiliated with the gang at some point.

Authorities say Holder shot and killed Hussle March 31 as he stood outside his Los Angeles clothing store. He has pleaded not guilty to killing Hussle.

The woman who drove Holder from the scene also testified she heard the men talk about “snitching.”

Elba says race talk around Bond casting disappointing

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

L

ONDON — Even though Idris Elba isn’t trying to become the next James Bond, he’s disheartened that some people don’t think he should be considered for the spy role because he’s black.

The British actor says in the August issue of Vanity Fair that it’s frustrating that there are people who say “‘It can’t be.’ And it really turns out to

be the colour of my skin.”

Some have speculated that the Luther star would make the perfect Bond.

Elba says although Bond is a coveted, beloved character that he would be fascinated to play, he doesn’t need to put himself in the position of questioning whether a stint as Bond did or didn’t work “because of the colour of my skin.”

Elba stars in Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw due in theatres in August.

The Black Keys stick to their roots on ‘Let’s Rock’

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

T

he Black Keys are back with a return to their roots. And just in case their opening song doesn’t make that clear enough, the album’s title — Let’s Rock — spells out their intention.

Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney have made rock with a bluesy-funk undertone their specialty, with this influence even shining through on some of Auerbach’s production projects (see Cage the Ele-

phant’s Tell Me I’m Pretty). While they may have ventured from this sound slightly on their last album, 2014’s ambient and psychedelic Turn Blue, they’ve returned to it in full force and to full effect on their ninth LP, Let’s Rock.

Opener Shine a Little Light is appropriately bright and upbeat, entering with a blues rock feel before changing gears into a more garage rock sound for the chorus. It’s followed by Eagle Birds, a track equally reminiscent of the Keys’ sound on 2010’s Brothers and 2011’s El Camino.

While the Keys have returned to their catchy, provocative riffs, Let’s Rock leans closer to their

more recent albums than their earlier, grittier sound. Softer songs like Walk Across the Water and the Beatles-sounding Sit Around and Miss You bring depth to the album, while the female background vocalists used throughout add gentle, soulful tones.

Get Yourself Together is another highlight with its Western tinge and foot-stomping rhythm.

From top to bottom, the 12-track Let’s Rock holds tight to captivating instrumentation, with guitar at the centre. The Black Keys are rock royalty and to the relief of many, they aren’t quite ready to relinquish their reign.

Utley honoured, tosses pitch to Always Sunny’s Rob McElhenney

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

P

HILADELPHIA — Chase Utley ran out to second base one more time wearing a red pinstriped No. 26 Philadelphia Phillies jersey and dark blue suit pants while his walk-up song Kashmir by Led Zeppelin blared and adoring fans stood and cheered.

The six-time All-Star was honoured last Friday night at a retirement ceremony before the Phillies played the Miami Marlins. He called Phillies fans the “best” in baseball and threw a ceremonial first pitch to actor Rob McElhenney, creator of It’s

Always Sunny in Philadelphia. McElhenney had a “man crush” on Utley in one of the show’s episodes.

“Thank you the fans of Philadelphia,” Utley said.

“Thank you for motivating me, thank you for being straight forward, thank you for picking me up when I was down, thank you for being loyal, a bit crazy at times and thank you for being passionate. Overall, thank you for being the best fans in baseball.”

Utley played 13 seasons in Philadelphia and helped the Phillies win five straight NL East titles, two NL pennants and the 2008 World Series. He was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2015 and finished his career there last season.

The sweet-swinging Utley is perhaps the most

popular player in franchise history. He was beloved for his hustle, heart and all-out attitude. Fans fell in love with Utley from the moment he ran — not jogged — around the bases after hitting a grand slam for his first hit in the majors. Their affection for Utley grew legendary after he scored from second base on an infield grounder and Hall of Fame broadcaster Harry Kalas declared: “Chase Utley, you are the man.”

Utley is the second player from the team’s former All-Star infield being honoured with a retirement ceremony. Shortstop Jimmy Rollins had his night and first baseman Ryan Howard will have one next month.

Kim Kardashian West faces backlash over Kimono shapewear

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

N

EW YORK — Kim Kardashian West has received backlash on social media from people who object to what they say is appropriation of the traditional Japanese kimono in the name of her upcoming shapewear line.

The reality star, makeup mogul and budding lawyer announced the line, Kimono Solutionwear, on Tuesday. The line will come in a range of sizes and colours she showed off on

Instagram.

Some Japanese critics on social media said the name, which West trademarked, is an inappropriate take on centuries-old kimono clothing.

There was no word on when the line would go on sale. West said it’s “coming soon.” An email request for comment to West’s spokeswoman was not immediately returned Wednesday.

The kimono has evolved to a style of formal dress worn for special occasions, including weddings, funerals and tea ceremonies.

Cosby files appeal over testimony from other women accusers

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

N

ORRISTOWN, Pa. — Comedian Bill Cosby has filed a lengthy appeal of the sex assault conviction that landed him in prison and says the judge allowed testimony from other women accusers that wasn’t relevant.

Cosby’s lawyers say the accounts from the five other women were “strikingly dissimilar” to that of trial accuser Andrea Constand and too remote in time to her 2004 encounter

with Cosby.

The appeal Tuesday comes after Pennsylvania Judge Steven O’Neill in a post-trial memo said their testimony showed “chilling similarities” that pointed to a “signature” crime.

The 81-year-old Cosby has been serving a three- to 10-year prison term since September at a state prison near Philadelphia.

The appeal also challenges O’Neill’s decisions to air Cosby’s prior deposition testimony about Quaalude use and to preside despite an alleged feud with a pretrial witness.

South Korea’s ‘Song-Song’ couple seek divorce, stunning fans

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

S

EOUL, Korea, Republic Of — South Korean superstar couple Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo are seeking a divorce to end their celebrity marriage of less than two

years.

Dubbed as “Song-Song couple,” both have huge followings across Asia and elsewhere. They married in October 2017 after falling in love while co-starring in the mega-hit TV drama, Descendants of the Sun. They are one of the highest-profile star

couples in South Korea’s entertainment world.

A law firm representing Song Joong-ki confirmed he was taking legal steps to divorce actress Song Hye-kyo.

The 33-year-old actor offered an apology to his fans because he had to deliver “not good news,” according to the Seoul-based Lee & Ko law firm.

Song Joong-ki said he won’t disclose details about why he and 37-year-old Song Hye-kyo want to end their marriage. He said both want to end their divorce proceedings smoothly rather than blame each other.

Artists Agency, said “a personality difference” is the reason for the divorce.

“Song Hye-kyo is taking steps for divorce after cautious considerations with her husband,” the company said, according to Yonhap news agency.

“The reason is a personality difference, and the two sides inevitably made this decision, unable to overcome their differences.”

The names of the couple were the most searched words on main portal sites in South Korea and China for much of Thursday. Many fans issued messages on online sites expressing their sadness over the divorce.

Aggressive mating behaviour closes stingray exhibit at Winnipeg zoo

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

W

INNIPEG — Three stingrays have died and 24 others are getting what amounts to a cold shower after aggressive mating behaviour at a Winnipeg

zoo.

The Stingray Beach exhibit opened in May and this month, during peak mating season, some of the cownose rays started getting randy and competitive.

“During mating season … what you might get is some injuries related to the males sort of competing for female attention, but males will sometimes also bite females in the act,” Laura Cabak, a spokeswoman for the Assiniboine Park Zoo, said Thursday.

The same behaviour is seen in the wild, Cabak said, when days get longer and waters warm.

The zoo has closed the exhibit, reduced the amount of daylight reaching it and cooled the water. It’s not that the colder water has a direct impact on the stingray passions, but it signals a change of

seasons.

“We’re doing some things to the environment to try to trick them into thinking it’s no longer breeding season.”

The zoo has also removed decorative rocks from the exhibit to reduce the risk of injuries. A separate area has been established where three injured rays can recover and receive antibiotics.

Cabek said the cooler water and reduced daylight seem to be doing the trick.

“Signs are that it’s working, but we’re just taking things day by day.”

WOMEN’S WORLD CUP

England qualifes for semifinals

WOMEN’S WORLD CUP

France heatwave continues as USWNT prepares for World Cup quarterfinal PARIS —The climate has changed considerably since the United States women’s national team arrived in France June 7. For the first four matches, temperatures hovered in the 60s and low 70s. Now, France is experiencing a heatwave with temperatures reaching record highs and soaring over 100 degrees in some areas.

Several hundred schools closed throughout the country Wednesday because of the heat and will remain closed Thursday and Friday. Some train lines were slowed as well, and some cities, including Paris, implemented traffic restrictions to handle increased pollution and lower air quality.

The forecasted high for Friday is 94 degrees, and it will likely remain in the high 80s for the 9 p.m. (3 p.m. ET) kickoff of the U.S. World Cup quarterfinal against host France.

But USWNT players said they are not concerned about playing their big game, which will determine whether they advance to Lyon for the semifinals or go home, in hot weather.

“I can speak for myself and most of the girls who play in the NWSL, we play in this heat every week,” U.S. midfielder Sam Mewis said. “I live in North Carolina, so I train in this. We haven’t noticed it that much. I think a lot of girls are used to it.”

Paris is under an orange-level heat warning, which is the second highest in the four-tier rating system.

The warning means that everyone, even people in good health, are threatened by the heat and should be careful of dehydration and heat stroke, according to meteoalarm.eu, which integrates severe weather information from all European countries.

“Danger is greater for elderly people, people with chronic illness or mental disease, people who regularly take medications and isolated persons.

Athletes and people who work outdoors should be careful of dehydration and heat stroke.

Pay particular attention to children,” the warning states.

FIFA usually bans outside water bottles from stadiums, but allowed fans to bring their own water bottles into Sweden’s 1-0 win Monday against Canada.

FIFA also can implement short water breaks for players anytime after 30 minutes in matches played in extreme heat.

“Like Sam said, we have just a ton of methods and resources available to us to make sure we’re not affected by this,” forward Tobin Heath said.

“And we’ve already started our kind of process of being well-adapted to the heat.”

England 3 Norway 0 E HAVRE, France — Lucy Bronze helped set up the first two goals before completing England’s 3-0 victory over Norway with a powerful shot of her own Thursday night, sending the team into its second straight Women’s World Cup semifinal.

After finishing third at the last tournament four years ago, England will now face either France or the United States on Tuesday in its quest for a first women’s final.

“Their two scouts were sitting literally behind the bench,” England coach Phil Neville said. “So I waved at them after the goals.”

The first came after only two minutes and nine seconds in front of a crowd of more than 21,000.

Bronze muscled her way down the right flank before cutting the ball back. Ellen White missed a shot but Jill Scott was primed to strike in off the post.

White did get her fifth goal of the tournament in the 40th minute. Played in by Bronze, Nikita Parris spotted White racing between the Norway centre backs to receive the pass and sweep into the net.

It was a clever routine that led to the third in the 57th minute. With England preparing to take a free kick on the left flank, Norway was expecting it to be swung into the penalty area. But Beth Mead spotted Bronze arriving at the edge of the penalty area unmarked and the right back connected firsttime and raised it high into the roof of the net with a fierce shot.

“What you have seen tonight is that Lucy Bronze is the best player in the world,” Neville said. “There is no player like her in the world, no player who has her athleticism and quality. I played full back but never to that level she played at.”

Nodding in approval from the stands was David Beckham, who high-fived Sue Campbell, the head of women’s soccer in England.

FIELD HOCKEY

Spain beats Canada in gold-medal game at FIH Women’s Series Finals Spain 4 Canada 2 VALENCIA, Spain — Canada finished second at the FIH Series Finals field hockey tournament after a 4-2 loss to host Spain on Thursday.

But the Canadian women advanced to an Olympic qualifying playoff later this year by virtue of making the final of the eight-country tournament.

While Beckham never made it past a quarterfinal as a player for the England men’s team, the Lionesses are now in their third successive semifinal after also making the final four at the 2017 European Championship.

Beckham, a former teammate of Neville’s at Manchester United and England, paid a visit to the team hotel in Deauville before the game with 7-year-old daughter Harper.

“That gave them a sense over how special the performances have been,” Neville said.

A video message from retired rowing champion Katherine Grainger, Britain’s most decorated female Olympian, was played in the team meeting.

“It gave you goosebumps,” Neville said, “about what it takes to win.”

England is now two games away from winning its first major women’s title.

“I said to them in the huddle, ‘Are you ready to win a World Cup?’” Neville said.

The path to victory in Stade Océane did seem to be impeded by a virus in the camp.

Despite a concerning medical update from Neville on the eve of the game about Millie Bright’s sickness, she made the starting lineup.

So did her central defensive partner Steph Houghton, who was doubtful after sustaining an ankle injury in the round of 16 victory over Cameroon. But she made a decisive goal-line clearance in the second half after Bright’s sloppy back pass went straight to Lisa-Marie Utland, who was nearly tripped by goalkeeper Karen Bardsley before shooting from a tight angle.

The victory margin could have been greater had Parris not had a penalty kick saved. After netting from the spot in the opening game against Scotland, she was also denied against Argentina in the group stage.

Neville has no qualms about keeping her on penalty duty.

“She is our best taker,” Neville said. “She will be beating herself up for not scoring but shouldn’t.”

The Canadian women are ranked 21st in the world, compared to No. 7 for Spain. The two teams had tied 1-1 in the preliminary round.

Sara McManus and Brienne Stairs scored for Canada. Marta Segu, Clara Ycart, Lola Riera and Carmen Cano accounted for Spain’s goals. Stairs, from Kitchener, Ont., finished as the tournament’s top scorer with eight goals. Victoria’s Anna Mollenhauer was named the tournament’s top young player.

The winner of the Pan American Games, which open on July 26 in Lima, will also head to the 2020 Tokyo Games.

Canada women’s rugby team faces elite opposition

WOMEN’S RUGBY SUPER SERIES

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

A

fter seeing limited action since finishing fifth at the 2017 Women’s Rugby World Cup, Canada will test itself against the world’s best at the Women’s Rugby Super Series in Chula Vista, Calif.

The round-robin event, which runs Friday through July 14, features No. 1 New Zealand, No. 2 England, No. 3 Canada, No. 4 France and the fifthranked U.S. “Two years away from the World Cup, it’s a great opportunity to see where we’re at and obviously build some momentum towards that,” said Canada coach Sandro Fiorino.

Canada opens Friday against New Zealand, which joins the field this year.

The Canadian women have never beaten New Zealand in 14 attempts, dating back to 1991.

“It’s a stiff challenge to start. They don’t have a lot of holes in their program … They can beat you up front and they can beat you with the backline with speed and the creativity through their (Nos.) 9 and 10,” said Fiorino, referencing the Black Ferns’ scrum half and fly half.

“We just have to be patient with our defensive structure, put some pressure on them and hopefully create some turnovers and execute on those opportunities when they do come.”

The Canadian women went unbeaten in winning the last edition of the tournament three years ago with England finishing runner-up.

The event has expanded to five teams with the addition of the fivetime World Cup champion Black Ferns.

After New Zealand, Canada plays France on July 2, England on July 6 and the U.S on July 10, with all the games at the Elite Training Center in Chula Vista, a U.S. Olympic and Paralympic training site. The Canadians have the toughest schedule at the tournament, with their bye coming on the final day of competition, July 14 at the University of San Diego’s Torero Stadium.

“I know load management is a big word in Toronto,” said Fiorino, with a reference to the Raptors resting Kawhi Leonard during the NBA regular season. “We’re doing our best to manage the players’ loads through

sports science and nutrition and recovery.”

Canada has brought 28 players to the tournament and will likely use all of them, with rotation planned for the first two games.

Veteran hooker Laura Russell captains the Canadian squad, which includes veterans Amanda Thornborough and vice-captain Elissa Alarie.

The roster also features centre Sara Kaljuvee, who comes over from the sevens squad.

Former Canadian under-20 skipper Sophie de Goede, whose parents are former Canada rugby captains Hans de Goede and Stephanie White, will start at lock for her first cap. M.P. Fauteux could win her first cap off the bench.

Canada lost 48-5 when it met New Zealand in group play at the 2017 World Cup in Ireland. New Zealand defeated England 41-32 in the World Cup final while France downed the U.S. 31-23 for third place.

New Zealand’s matchday 23 Friday includes four uncapped players: No. 8 Pia Tapsell and replacements Luka Connor, Karli Faneva and Arihiana Marino-Tauhinu.

New Zealand’s starting 15 has a combined 322 caps with vice-captain Kendra Cocksedge, Eloise Blackwell, Selica Winiata and Renee Wickliffe accounting for 155 of them.

Cocksedge, the Black Ferns scrum half, could hit 50 caps at the tournament. She would join retired captain Fiao’o Faamausili as the only New Zealand women to reach the milestone.

Centre Carla Hohepa and prop Toka Natua return to action for the Black Ferns for the first time since the 2017 World Cup final in Belfast.

The 33-year-old Hohepa had a baby during her rugby hiatus.

New Zealand coach Glenn Moore expects Canada to be a tough test.

“We know Canada has one of the best scrums — if not the best — scrum in the world and we know they like to be physical.” he said. “They’ve certainly got pace, so we expect them to bring a lot to the game.

“We’ve recovered well from our travel and have been preparing for this for months now. Everyone can’t wait to get out there and play.”

The New Zealand squad includes sevens players Kelly Brazier, Alena Saili and Theresa Fitzpatrick.

After limited action since finishing fifth at the 2017 Women’s Rugby World Cup, Canada will test itself against the world’s best at the Women’s Rugby Super Series in Chula Vista, Calif.

Canada is coming off a joint training camp with the U.S. in May at the University of Guelph.

Fiorino brought in the program’s top 40 players and fielded them in two split-squads against the Americans.

It was the first action for the Canadian women since a 2018 fall tour of the United Kingdom when they beat No. 12 Scotland 28-25 and No. 8 Wales 38-21 and lost 27-19 to England. A Canada ‘A’ side beat England ‘A’ 35-14.

ROCKET MORTGAGE CLASSIC

Lashley shoots 63 to take lead

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

D

ETROIT — Nate Lashley tried and failed to qualify for a spot in the Rocket Mortgage Classic earlier this week.

He chose to stay in Detroit, hoping to slip into the field as an alternate.

Good call.

Lashley birdied the final three holes and five of the last six for a 9-under 63 and the first-round lead Thursday at the PGA Tour’s first event in Detroit.

The 36-year-old Lashley had the lowest score in his PGA Tour career, a day after finding out he would have a chance to compete at Detroit Golf Club. Ranked 353rd in the world and No. 132 in the FedEx Cup standings, Lashley’s only top-10 finish in his two-year PGA Tour career is a tie for eighth in the Puerto

Rico Open in February.

“Hopefully, can play well this week and continue to play well and lock up my card,” he said.

Ryan Armour and Nick Watney were at stroke back at 64. Chez Reavie , the Travelers Championship winner last week in Connecticut, and Charles Howell III and Stewart Cink topped the group of seven players at 65.

Mackenzie Hughes of Dundas, Ont., fired a 6-under 66 to finish the day in a tie for 11th.

Nick Taylor of Abbotsford, B.C., shot a 4-under 68 to enter a tie for 33rd, Ben Silverman of Thornhill, Ont., was at 3-under 69 to tie for 55th. Roger Sloan of Merritt, B.C., and Adam Svensson of Surrey, B.C., had identical 2-under 70 rounds to tie for 75th. Mike Weir of Brights Grove, Ont., was tied for 122nd at even-par 72 and Corey Conners of Listowel, Ont., was at 1-over 73 to tie for 131st.

Dustin Johnson, the second-ranked player in the world, opened with a 71. Gary Woodland had a 73 in his first start since winning the U.S. Open, an accomplishment that altered his career and schedule.

“I definitely didn’t get prepared as much as I like to, but that’s no excuse,” Woodland said.

Lashley made the most of the opportunity with a bogey-free round, taking advantage of scoring opportunities during a day with little wind on a short course with receptive greens. He opened with a birdie and had three more on the front nine before the closing spree.

Lashley, who is from Nebraska, had a knee injury last year that stunted his rookie season on the PGA Tour after 17 events.

“I’m just trying to play relaxed and confident golf,” he said.

There’s no chance Lashley can afford to be comfortable with the early lead.

Johnson provided proof the Donald Ross-designed course can present a challenge. The only top-10 player in the field ranked in the middle of the pack off the tee, missing five of 14 fairways. He was among the worst on approach shots, leaving him 33plus feet away from the pin on average.

Johnson missed the green to the left on the 175-yard, par3 fifth and his ball bounced into a bunker, forcing him to stand in the rough while squatting to get the ball out of the sand.

“It ended up in a terrible spot,” he said.

Four shots later, Johnson had his first of two double bogeys. He was 2 over at No. 11 before rallying with three birdies over the last five holes.

Nylander optimistic about Marner’s contract talks with Maple Leafs “It’s always a tough process, but in the end it will work out for both sides,” Nylander said Thursday during the NHLPA Golf Classic. “It was hard. It was always going back and forth (and) sometimes there’s no talking at all.

“That’s just a part of negotiations.”

It’s difficult to know how talks between Marner and the Leafs are going, with neither side publicly providing any information of substance, but the fact the two camps have been unable to come to an agreement with free agency set to open Monday has to be concerning from a Toronto perspective.

“I’ve talked to him a little bit,” Nylander said of Marner. “It’s just the beginning of summer. You’ve got a lot more time to go, so there’s no wor-

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

O

AKVILLE, Ont. — William Nylander stepped up to his putt, struck it clean and raised a fist in celebration after the ball dropped in the cup.

If only contract negotiations between Mitch Marner and the Maple Leafs were that straightforward.

If anyone knows what the talented winger is feeling as Marner inches closer to hitting restricted free agency, it’s Nylander. He was the last Toronto forward to go through what can be a challenging and emotionally draining exercise — one that, for him, dragged agonizingly into last December.

“That was a big part of it,” Nylander said. “We were kind of at a standstill.”

Dubas said at the NHL draft last week that the Leafs are putting the finishing touches on new contracts with fellow RFA wingers Kasperi Kapanen and Andreas Johnsson.

But getting a deal done with Marner, who was allowed to begin speaking with other teams Wednesday, has proven more difficult.

With star centres Auston Matthews ($11.6 million) and John Tavares ($11 million), and Nylander ($6.9 million) already chewing up nearly $30 million, the Leafs are walking a fine line with about $19 million in salary cap space available.

ries.”

That’s not how many fans are feeling.

After the Leafs were bounced from the playoffs by the Bruins in April for the second time in 12 months, general manager Kyle Dubas called getting Marner signed “priority one.” But negotiations have moved slowly with the 22-year-old, who led Toronto with career-bests in points (94) and assists (68) in 2018-19, and also set a new personal high-water mark in goals (26).

Nylander eventually signed a sixyear, US$45-million contract to end an impasse that cost him the first two months of last season, but he said speaking face-to-face with Dubas when the GM flew to Europe was what really got the ball rolling.

Pot edibles may drive up life insurance premiums

MARIJUANA

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

T

ORONTO — Canadians looking to enjoy soon-tobe-legalized pot-infused edibles could get hit with higher insurance premiums — depending on the size of their appetite.

Many insurers no longer treat cannabis users as cigarette smokers — who pay much higher premiums due to the high-risk activity — provided there is no tobacco or nicotine in the products they use.

The shift came in recent years as Canada moved to legalize pot for recreational use, starting with dried flower, oils, plants and seeds.

However, to avoid paying more, cannabis usage must stay below a set number per week and many insurers count any kind of pot, whether it is smoked or sipped or chewed.

The threshold ranges from two to four cannabis usages per week, depending on the insurer, said Lorne Marr, LSM Insurance’s director of new business development.

“More than four, then you would still be treated as a non-smoker with most companies, but there would be an extra rating or extra premium attached to that marijuana use,” he said.

“And most companies treat the edibles as similar to smoking.”

But the approach among insurers varies, with some allowing for unlimited edibles consumption and others deeming a client a smoker after more than four weekly pot usages.

“You definitely want to shop around, because there could be a big difference,” Marr said.

Cannabis-infused foods, beverages as well as topicals such as lotions containing cannabidiol — known as CBD, the non-intoxicating compound found in pot — are set to hit retail shelves as early as mid-December.

Earlier this month, Ottawa said the legislation regulating these new, next-generation cannabis products will come into force on Oct. 17. In turn, due to regulatory requirements, the earliest they can go on sales is 60 days later.

Companies are expecting brisk demand for these products as they appeal to a broader base of consum-

Many insurers no longer treat cannabis users as cigarette smokers — who pay much higher premiums due to the high-risk activity — provided there is no tobacco or nicotine in the products they use. ers, including those who don’t want to smoke.

The Canadian Life and Health Insurance Association said pot consumption, for either recreational or medical use, will be taken into account when assessing risk and premiums.

“However, our members are continuing to assess the risks of any form of cannabis and will make adjustments to the risk profile as cannabis becomes more prominent in the market and more evidence of health impacts are known,” a spokesman said in an emailed statement.

Manulife Financial Corp. said it reviewed its underwriting around cannabis use in 2016 and currently, any users who do not use any nicotine products or e-cigarettes will be classified as non-smokers.

The insurer’s individual insurance products are available to both recreational or medical cannabis users, but factors affecting the rates include

the amounts used, the company said in an emailed statement.

“The information about quantity used is proprietary, most recreational users are issued standard premium rates… Edibles are currently considered the same as all other forms of consumption,” a spokeswoman said in a statement.

Desjardins Insurance said it has been assigning cannabis users non-smoker rates for individual life insurance since 2016.

Ingestible cannabis willbe treated the same way as smoking pot, but the insurer said it doesn’t disclose the quantity or frequency it uses to assess the risk.

“Depending on the level of consumption, we could decline coverage or rate accordingly as we do for alcohol consumption, for example,” a spokeswoman said in an emailed statement.

Canada Protection Plan, which offers no-medical-and-simplified-issue

life insurance, said if a client smokes cannabis more than four times a week, including vaping, they are categorized as a smoker.

Consumption of cannabis, in any form, more than four times a week would also mean they are ineligible for certain plans, a spokeswoman for the insurer said in an emailed statement.

The impact is significant, as those with smoker status pay as much as two or three times more in premiums, Marr said.

While most insurers limit weekly consumption of cannabis, few stipulate how much can be consumed in one sitting, he added.

“You could have a huge brownie or a little brownie,” he said. “Or you could have one of those Cheech-andChong joints or a little tiny joint…

That part hasn’t been properly clarified yet.”

As well, it is unclear how topicals, such as a CBD-infused lotion for joint pain, will be treated.

Manulife said it is an “evolving issue” and it will evaluate specifics as legalization of these new products occurs.

“Based on the research we’ve completed to date, we’re not anticipating any major changes in our approach to underwriting cannabis once it becomes available in other formats.”

Insurance companies will not be monitoring what you are eating while sitting on your couch on a Friday night, but will be basing their assessments on how you answer a series of questions in their initial application forms.

It may be tempting to downplay your cannabis usage, but it is important to be transparent, said David Share, a lawyer which specializes in insurance claims.

“Disclosure is very, very important on these applications to be accurate…

Insurance companies will look under every rock to find some way to not pay,” he said.

And if there is undisclosed pot usage that shows up in a doctor’s notes or medical history, that could void the insurance, he warned.

“If you’re concerned about the cost of life insurance… then the guidance is to limit your use to moderate use.”

MARKETS CLOSE TORONTO — Losses in the key energy and materials sectors kept Canada’s main stock index from getting the lift enjoyed by two U.S. markets ahead of weekend G20 talks.

The S&P/TSX composite index closed down 4.49 points to 16,307.73 while the Canadian dollar hit a more than four-month high.

In New York, the Dow Jones industrial average was down 10.24 points at 26,526.58. But the S&P 500 index gained 11.14 points at 2,924.92, while the Nasdaq composite was up 57.79 points at 7,967.76.

Investors are eagerly awaiting G20 meetings this weekend where U.S. President Donald

Trump and his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jingping, will seek a resolution to their trade war, says Kash Pashootan, CEO and chief investment officer at First Avenue Investment Counsel Inc. “The markets are going into this weekend’s meetings with the expectation that some resolution will be met,” he said in an interview.

Still, there were conflicting signs ahead of the meeting.

Markets initially gained on Chinese reports that an agreement was being discussed to avert U.S. tariffs on an additional US$300 billion worth of Chinese imports. But then White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said

Washington may proceed with more tariffs.

Pashootan said Kudlow was trying to manage expectations.

“The market is pricing in more than just progress. It seems to be pricing in a full agreement given he amount of enthusiasm we’ve seen as of late,” he said.

“So it’s really just to recalibrate and have more of a correlation between optimism and really where the discussions are at.”

The outcome of the weekend could have a material impact on the U.S. Federal Reserve rate decision in July, he added.

The prospect of rate cuts has weakened the U.S. dollar and pushed the loonie to its highest level since Feb. 1.

BUSINESS IN BRIEF

WestJet, Delta one step closer to joint venture CALGARY — WestJet Airlines Ltd. says it is one step closer to a joint venture with Delta Air Lines after getting the green light from Canada’s competition watchdog.

The Calgary-based carrier says the Competition Bureau gave clearance in a letter stating it does not intend to challenge the proposed deal.

The transborder agreement announced last July would expand the two carriers’ codesharing agreement — where passengers can purchase seats from one airline on a flight operated by another. For WestJet, the joint venture would open up more of the southern U.S. and western European markets via Delta flights through airports in Atlanta and Barcelona.

Despite the Delta tie-up, luring passengers away from Air Canada could be difficult because WestJet isn’t part of a major airline alliance, such as Air Canada’s Star Alliance, SkyTeam or Oneworld.

The country’s largest carrier commands nearly a quarter of total capacity on flights between

Canada and the United States, while WestJet and Delta have about one-fifth combined.

The would-be joint venture is still subject to regulatory approval from the U.S. Department of Transportation.

Ticketmaster to pay $4.5M in misleading price investigation OTTAWA — The Competition Bureau says Ticketmaster will pay $4.5 million in penalties and associated costs to settle a case investigating misleading pricing claims for its online ticket sales.

The bureau said Thursday that Ticketmaster LLC, TNow Entertainment Group Inc. and Ticketmaster Canada LP will pay a $4-million penalty and $500,000 for the bureau’s investigation costs.

The companies will also create a compliance program as part of a consent agreement.

The news comes after the bureau found Ticketmaster’s advertised prices did not reflect the true cost to the consumer as the online ticket service added mandatory fees.

INQUEST

‘Beautiful boy’ slipped between health-care cracks: father

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

V

ICTORIA — The parents of a Victoria-area teen who died of a drug overdose say they don’t want other families to experience the trauma of having a child slip their caring hands.

Rachel Staples and Brock Eurchuk made the comments Wednesday at the conclusion of a British Columbia coroner’s inquest into the overdose death last year of 16-year-old Elliot Eurchuk. The jury was scheduled to begin deliberations Thursday.

“We don’t want other children to navigate our community in a very difficult, vulnerable state and fall through the cracks like Elliot did,” said Brock Eurchuk outside of the inquest. ”I’ll be dealing with my failures as Elliot’s File photo by THE CANADIAN PRESS father for the rest of my life.”

Elliot Eurchuk, 16, died at his home after taking street drugs his parents believe he Eurchuk was found unresponsive was using to help him sleep.

Staples said she’s received countless messages from people across Canada concerned that parents are prevented from helping children in the deepest hour of need due to privacy laws.

“They’re horrified that a child can block information,” she said outside the inquest.

The inquest heard Wednesday from a Kelowna pediatrician who treats children and youth struggling with substance abuse issues. Dr. Tom Warshawski said he supports placing young people in treatment facilities against their will if they’ve suffered an overdose.

He described an overdose as a lifeand-death situation where a young person’s brain and actions are being controlled by the potentially deadly drugs.

Warshawski said that committing young people to secure treatment facilities under B.C.’s Mental Health Act, where they can’t leave for a time period of about one week, allows doctors to help clean the drugs out of their systems and open their minds to the possibility of future treatment.

“It’s not a panacea,” he said. “It’s not a guarantee of success. I think it’s an important tool that needs to be looked at. The choice is involuntary (treatment) versus continued life-threatening behaviour.”

ORDER OF CANADA

Nunvaut leader among 83 new members

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

O

TTAWA — Ask Reggie Leach about hockey and you can hear the joy in his voice as he talks about winning the Stanley Cup in his own playing days, and donning a Team Canada jersey and watching his children represent the country years later in hockey and lacrosse.

And then the man known as the “Riverton Rifle” stops to think about the thank-you the country is giving him this Canada Day for all he has done during and since his hockey career.

“Hockey to me was just a stepping stone to my life circle. I am more proud of what I did after hockey than what I did during my hockey days,” says Leach, who is Ojibwa.

Leach is among 83 new appointees to the Order of Canada, in a list that includes scientists, healthcare advocates, jurists, actors, athletes and public servants. They join nearly 7,000 people on the honour roll — “the elites that Canada has to offer,” Leach says — since its introduction more than five decades ago, including Leach’s relative, educator Rev. Frederic Leach.

“To me, it’s one of the highest honours you can receive as a Canadian,” the former hockey star said.

“It just hasn’t sunk in yet, but you think back on all the people who are in there and all of sudden you have Reggie Leach in the Order of Canada. It’s hard to believe. It’s something that will sink in.”

Leach’s NHL career started in the fall of 1970, three years after the Order of Canada was created in 1967 to mark Canada’s centenary.

It was around the same time that the wom-

en’s-rights movement was laying the foundation for women like Moya Greene to make their way up the corporate ladder. Greene, originally of St. John’s, N.L., rose through the public service and the private sector to lead Canada Post in 2005. She moved to the United Kingdom to become the first head of the Royal Mail in 2010.

Although she received a damehood from the Queen last year, Greene says the Order of Canada carries a different significance.

“This is the country of my birth. This is where I grew up. These are the people who educated me, these are the people who mentored me, who gave me this brilliant career,” Greene says in an interview from the U.K., where she still lives.

“This is very, very special for my country — the country that just gave me nothing but opportunity, really — to recognize me in this way.”

Leach looks on things the same way. He went from growing up poor in Riverton, Man., to playing alongside fellow Order of Canada member Bobby Clarke. The two hoisted the Stanley Cup in 1975.

The next year, Leach was named the most valuable player in the NHL playoffs — one of a very few from a team that didn’t win the championship — and donned the Team Canada jersey.

Leach regularly speaks to Indigenous youth about his life, hoping they don’t repeat his past missteps: “That’s what I live for today, is to help these kids out and get them in the right direction.”

Similar to Leach, it’s what Claude Raymond has done since his professional baseball career that gives him a smile. The former Montreal Expo runs an annual golf tournament to raise money for needy children, speaks with young people, and has his name tied to a baseball tournament that attracts some of the best youth teams in Quebec and Ontario.

“I’ve had many honours throughout my career and my life, but this is it,” he said of the Order of Canada.

Others are being promoted within the order, including some well-known faces from stages and screens: Singer Buffy Sainte-Marie and actors Martin Short and Donald Sutherland.

One new appointee, however, works behind the cameras.

Since the late 1970s, Renee April has been a costume designer for more than 50 Hollywood and television productions, including The Red Violin, Grey Owl, Night at the Museum, Arrival, and Blade Runner 2049. She, too, said she is happiest with her work with young designers, paying forward opportunities others afforded her.

“That I am proud of — to give a chance and believe in young people and fresh talent,” she said.

Edna Elias has been teaching young people since she was a teacher’s assistant in the 1970s in what is now Nunavut, which turns 20 this July. She is one of the territory’s former commissioners — a role similar to a lieutenant-governor in provinces — and is being recognized for her decades-long efforts to maintain and revitalize traditional Inuit languages.

“There are a number of great people who are trying to do the same thing as I am who are now putting in a lot of the groundwork and doing the revitalization necessary,” Elias said.

“I hope that it (the Order of Canada) gives them incentive to carry on.”

Brewer John Sleeman is also on the list, as is Michael Smith, an American-born chef and television personality who has lived and worked mainly in Atlantic Canada since the 1990s. He runs the Inn at Bay Fortune on Prince Edward Island with his wife, Chastity, and oversees its renowned kitchen.

CANADA NEWS IN BRIEF

Stamps mark Canadian contribution to Apollo 11 moon mission LONGUEUIL, Que. — With the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission that landed humans on the moon for the first time approaching, Canada Post released a pair of commemorative stamps Thursday highlighting the Canadian minds and technology that went a long way to making the moment happen.

NASA astronaut Neil Armstrong’s first steps on July 20, 1969 were watched by half a billion people worldwide and became a well-known milestone in human space exploration.

But Canadian engineers working for NASA played a big part in the

mission, including Jim Chamberlin, who determined the type of spacecraft needed to get to the moon and was the first to realize first that flying directly to the moon wasn’t the best option. He would help develop the lunar orbit rendezvous — which involved descending to the surface aboard a landing module connected to the main spacecraft.

Chamberlin, born in 1915 in Kamloops, B.C., was the chief designer of the Avro Arrow project scrapped in 1959. He was one of dozens of engineers subsequently recruited south of the border to work with the NASA space program. He was head of engineering for Project Mercury — the first U.S. human space flight program — and designed the Gemini spacecraft that preceded Apollo.

“He was somebody that just shifted gears and did something else and met the next challenge,” said his son, Arthur Chamberlin, who travelled

from Houston for the event. “I think I would like my father to be best remembered as somebody who made a difference — he said that should be one of your goals in life — and I think it’s important.”

Owen Maynard, one of Canada’s top aircraft engineers, sketched early designs of the command module used in Apollo and was credited as the person at NASA most responsible for the lunar lander used. Born in Sarnia, Ont., he was also recruited

by NASA from the shuttered Avro project.

His son, Ross Maynard, of Peterborough, Ont., said he did some digging into the family archives looking into his father’s papers when approached by a documentary film crew.

“When NASA hired the Canadians, NASA got really lucky. Those Canadians became instrumental members of what was called the Space

Task Group,” Ross Maynard said.

The influence of the Canadians “is at the heart of what those involved in space exploration were and continue to be: a bunch of hard-working, highly motivated, relentless problem-solvers,” he added.

The event was held Thursday at Heroux-Devtek, the company based in Longueuil, Que., that built the landing gear components for the lunar module — technically the first thing to touch the moon’s surface that day. The legs remain on the moon to this day at the Apollo 11 landing site, known as the Sea of Tranquility.

In the 1960s, Gaston Bernier, an engineer for Heroux, was tasked with inspecting the lightweight aluminum legs, but he only learned what they were for at the very end of the process.

“It didn’t mean much to us, it was a part like any other,” said Bernier.

Crown tells Mountie’s trial he took risks to make arrest

An expert said Canadian officials did not respond quickly enough to this year’s migration of North Atlantic right whales.

RIGHT WHALES

Feds should have acted more quickly: expert

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

F

REDERICTON — Fisheries and Oceans Canada says it has sighted another dead endangered right whale drifting off the Gaspé Peninsula, bringing the total number of deaths in Canadian waters this year to six.

The government was still assessing recovery and necropsy options for this sixth whale.

The new information late Thursday came as an expert said Canadian officials did not respond quickly enough to this year’s migration of North Atlantic right whales.

Laurie Murison, executive director of the Grand Manan Whale and Seabird Research Station, said while vessel speed limits, fishing restrictions and other measures are now in place, they should have come sooner.

“They have reacted now, but it is something that needs to be in place at the beginning of every season. You need to look at what’s going on and

what the distribution is,” she said in an interview Thursday.

Murison said it was clear from Gulf of St. Lawrence surveillance flights that the whales were travelling further to the east this year than in the past two years.

“The whales are going to go to wherever the best food resources are.

They can vary from year to year and we don’t have a long term database for right whales in the Gulf,” she said.

Necropsy results show at least one of the dead whales had injuries consistent with a vessel strike.

Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) confirmed late Wednesday that a right whale was found dead on the shores of Anticosti Island near the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

In a statement, officials said scientists are on scene collecting samples for analysis, and working with various partners to assess necropsy options.

During a news conference Thursday, Isabelle Elliott, a marine mammal response officer with Fisheries and Oceans, said the age and identity of the fifth whale was not yet known.

HOMPSON, Man. — A Crown prosecutor argued Thursday that a Manitoba RCMP officer accused of manslaughter was motivated by the desire to make an arrest — no matter the cost — but the defence said he was forced to shoot because he feared for his life.

Crown attorney Christian Vanderhooft said Const. Abram Letkeman made only wrong choices in the leadup to the fatal 2015 shooting of Steven Campbell in Thompson, Man. “He wanted to arrest this person at whatever risk. If that meant having to shoot, he was going to shoot,” Vanderhooft said during closing arguments.

The defence said it was a dangerous situation in which split-second decisions had to be made. One of Letkeman’s lawyers, Joshua Weinstein, argued the situation needs to be understood through the lens of a police officer.

“At the end of the day, our client feared for his life and ended up shooting not because he wanted to, but because he had to,” said Weinstein.

The judge reserved his decision until Aug. 19.

Campbell, 39, was shot at least nine times. Two bullets lodged in his body — one in his jaw and another in his shoulder. Another bullet went through his open mouth.

Court has heard 12 bullet casings

were found at the scene. Four passengers were in Campbell’s vehicle. His girlfriend, Lori Flett, was shot and injured.

The trial heard it all started when Letkeman, 37, saw the Jeep being driven erratically shortly after the bars in Thompson, Man., had closed.

He attempted a traffic stop, but after a few moments the Jeep drove away. The officer started to pursue it, but he did not communicate that to his supervisors.

Letkeman testified he hoped to end the pursuit by using his police car to bump the back of the Jeep, forcing it to rotate and stop. A use of force expert testified that was against protocol and training, and was extremely risky.

The Jeep ended up on a trail for all-terrain vehicles, where it lost control and stopped. That’s when Letkeman’s vehicle T-boned it.

Letkeman testified he didn’t wait for backup and walked in front of the Jeep to do a high-risk takedown. He said the Jeep started moving towards him, so he was forced to fire.

The Crown countered that the officer stood in front of the vehicle and fired so that the Jeep could not drive away, not because he was in danger.

“Nothing he did was reasonable from the word go,” Vanderhooft said.

“Each opportunity where that should have been done, the wrong decision was made. Not just wrong, negligent.”

RURAL CANADA

Liberals look at short-term changes in strategies

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

O

TTAWA — The federal government is promising to piggyback on existing projects and networks to expand broadband access to rural communities as part of a larger strategy for rural Canada released Thursday.

Officials are also looking to rework some programs to make it easier for rural communities to benefit from federal spending as part of the work.

But aside from specific targets to connect Canadians to high-speed internet service, the rural strategy is largely without benchmarks and opposition parties are criticizing the documents as being bereft of big ideas.

The government isn’t announcing any new spending, but outlining ways to more efficiently dole out promised cash.

Rural Economic Development

Minister Bernadette Jordan said the aspirational tone of the document reflects concerns from rural communities about a one-size-fits-all approach.

She also said the release isn’t aimed at helping the Liberals in the fall election, and hold seats in largely rural Atlantic Canada, but reflects concerns rural Canadians raised during consultations.

“We want to make sure going forward that we are addressing those concerns,” Jordan said. “In reality, rural communities haven’t said, ‘We want you to come in and fix our problems.’ What they’ve said is, ‘We want to work in partnership with you,’ and that, going forward, is the biggest takeaway for us — is how do we make sure that we are working in partnership with rural Canada, how do we make sure that everything we’re doing is looked at through a rural lens?”

Museum puts heartbreak on display for all to see

UNIQUE EXHIBIT

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

T

ORONTO — Salima Punjani still loves the Ethiopian cotton scarf, despite the heartache woven into its fluorescent yellow fabric.

The gift from her ex had become a symbol of Punjani’s past loves and the pain that followed, and the 32-yearold Montreal graduate student knew she needed to let go of the item in order to unburden herself of the romantic baggage it carried.

Punjani couldn’t fathom who would want such an article of pain, nor was she ready to consign it to the trash heap.

So she decided to donate the scarf to the Museum of Broken Relationships, where it will be displayed alongside other artifacts of heartbreak in a Toronto exhibition opening Saturday.

“This is a perfect place to still honour the memories, but also get the scarf the hell out of my house,” Punjani said.

The Harbourfront Centre marks the 53rd stop in the Museum of Broken Relationships’ worldwide showcase of the mementos and memories that are left behind when love ends, organizers say.

The show will feature highlights from the museum’s permanent collection in Zagreb, Croatia, as well as about 10 new contributions from lovelorn Canadians.

These local donations may not seem like much at first glance, but their stories run the emotional gamut from fury to forgiveness.

A comb represents a bitter entanglement with a hair-obsessed ex-partner. A hand-drawn treasure map tracks an online romance that took a turn for the worse. A red-eyed toy rabbit evokes the searing glare of strangers witnessing a couple’s public argument.

The first-person testimonials that accompany each of the objects detail not only failed romance, but the passion that preceded it.

In this sense, co-founders Olinka Vistica and Drazen Grubisic like to say the museum is about love, but turned “upside-down.”

The trove of once-treasured keepsakes traces its origins back to the Croatian artists’ own breakup in the mid-2000s.

The former couple longed for a place where the sentiments and stories of their years-long relationship could be preserved. And over time, the personal project evolved into a public space where the private grief of heartbreak can be shared with strangers, Vistica said.

“When a relationship is over, there is a remembrance. There are people who can connect with it, empathize, identify with the story,” she said.

“In a way, it stops being your per-

sonal experience, but it becomes a human experience.”

All donations made to the museum are exhibited anonymously, and the stories of severed connections can span failed romance, betrayals of friendship or even the death of a loved one.

As the museum travelled across the globe, Vistica said the crowdsourced collection came to resemble an “anthropological study of modern love.”

Even with a limited sample size, one can learn a lot about a place’s character through its personal relics, she said.

Between curating a 2015 show in Whitehorse and the upcoming Toronto exhibition, Vistica has noticed the vast expanse of Canada lends itself to long-distance relationships, and a disproportionate number of donations involve warm apparel.

Both these elements are true of Punjani’s scarf, which bears the love and loss of two relationships — one that pushed her to pursue her passions, the other that forced her to recognize her own resilience.

Punjani met her first love in Ethiopia, where he helped her realize she was an artist, which was “the biggest gift he could have given me.”

But the scarf was the last present he gave her — on the day their engagement ended.

While pursuing her studies in Montreal, Punjani drained her bank account to meet up with her then-fiance in Sri Lanka, only to find out he was cheating on her.

The two parted on amicable terms.

And a couple years later, Punjani started seeing someone else, and he would borrow the scarf as a regular part of his wardrobe.

After that relationship ended painfully, Punjani tried to reclaim the scarf as her own. But every time she wrapped it around her neck, she felt her temperature rise and throat swell, as if she were having an emotional allergic reaction.

Punjani believes in “recycling love,” and by putting the scarf on display, she hopes this token of pain will be restored as a symbol of mutual support.

“The fact that it’s part of this Museum of Broken Relationships feels like this collective way of moving forward,” Punjani said. “It validates those feelings of loss and pain, but together.”

The Museum of Broken Relationships is part of Harbourfront Centre’s Brave: Secret Lives, Second Chances festival, and the exhibit from June 29 to Sept. 8.

Here are six tips to avoid crushing your credit

HEADING TO COLLEGE?

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

T

his is it. The moment you’ve been waiting for. No, not just going to college. Getting your own credit card in college. Being on your own, buying things on your own. Not having to check with your parents to get that new phone.

Before you get too excited, though, you should know that there’s more to managing a credit card than making sure there’s money on it to cover taco night with your friends.

Your credit history is one of the most important factors of your financial life. This three-digit score will determine the loans you qualify for (one day you’ll buy your own car), the interest rate you pay, and even whether you’re approved for an apartment or a job.

Lenders judge your credit worthiness, essentially how likely you are to repay a debt on time, by obtaining your credit score. The higher the score, the better. Since you’re about to enter the credit world for the first time, here are some things to remember so you don’t hurt your score.

1. Don’t make late payments Even the most organized people sometimes run late. While your parents may go easy on you, don’t expect that creditors will. Your timeliness —or lack of it —around bill payment accounts for 35% of your credit score. Paying just a few days after the due date won’t necessarily mark you a poor credit risk, but repeat offenses will. And serious offenses have a great affect. Late payments are categorized by the degree of lateness: 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, 120 days, 150 days or charge-off (when your balance is

Credit card debt can be a real struggle, especially when you’re a college student. declared as a loss by your creditor because you haven’t paid your debt).

2. Don’t let unpaid debts go to collections. Speaking of charge-offs, when you don’t pay a credit card you leave the creditor in a jam. The same goes for unpaid cellphone bills and almost any bill —even a parking ticket or late library fee. After a certain period of delinquency, the creditor can no longer count your debt as an asset and will charge it off its books —an action that is reported to credit bureaus. Don’t let the name fool you. A charge-off doesn’t mean the creditor has cancelled the debt and let you off the hook. On the contrary, this black mark on your credit reports alerts future lenders that you promised to pay back a debt and didn’t.

3. Don’t keep high balances or max out your cards.

The amount of debt you owe makes up 30% of your score. So carrying a big balance compared to your available credit on even just one credit card can indicate that you are overextended —and a potential risk.

4. Don’t exceed your limit Your credit limit —or the respect you show it — also affects your credit score. If you have abused your credit privileges by regularly exceeding your credit limit, lenders may charge an over-the-limit fee, increase your interest rate or even close your account.

5. Don’t apply for multiple credit accounts Establishing a credit history is a positive move —lenders like to see that you’ve been using credit well for years —but you may see a dip in your credit score when you open a new account. Why? Because each new debt represents a risk, since lenders don’t know why you got new credit or how you will handle it (though they can guess based on your history).

Will you go on a shopping spree you can’t afford, or will you use the credit carefully and pay your balance as agreed?

6. Keep an eye on your credit report As a consumer, you’re entitled to a free credit report every 12 months from each of the three credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. You can get all three at annualcreditreport.com. The reports are free, but you have to pay a small fee to get your credit score. According to the Experian website, a credit score of 700 or above is generally considered good.

Vaccine no match against flu bug that popped up near end

ATLANTA — The flu vaccine turned out to be a big disappointment again.

The vaccine didn’t work against a flu bug that popped up halfway through the past flu season, dragging down overall effectiveness to 29%, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported Thursday.

The flu shot was working well early in the season with effectiveness put at 47% in February. But it was virtually worthless during a second wave driven by a tougher strain, at just 9%.

There was “no significant protection” against that strain, said the CDC’s Brendan Flannery.

Flu vaccines are made each year to protect against three or four different kinds of flu virus.

The ingredients are based on predictions of what strains will make people sick the following winter.

This season’s shot turned out to be a mismatch against the bug that showed up late.

That pushed down the overall effectiveness to one of the lowest in recent years. Since 2011, the only season with a lower estimate was the winter of 2014-2015, when effectiveness was 19%. A mismatch was also blamed then.

Vaccines against some other infectious diseases are not considered successful unless they are at least 90% effective.

But flu is particularly challenging, partly because the virus can so quickly change. Overall, flu vaccine has averaged around 40%.

Flu shots are recommended for virtually all Americans age 6 months or older.

“The reason these tapes are so important is you can’t remaster recordings that have already been digitally mastered,” Adams explained.

Several acts, including Soundgarden and an estate representing Tupac Shakur, have launched lawsuits alleging that Universal failed to protect music ruined in the fire and inform them of the extent of its impact.

Canadian producer Bob Ezrin, who’s worked with generations of artists including Taylor Swift, Kiss, Alice Cooper and Nine Inch Nails, said he’s among many in the music community who are still trying to understand what’s been lost — and he expects those answers won’t be clear any time soon.

“All in all it’s an archival nightmare,” Ezrin said in response to questions about recordings he’s worked on.

“Some of the original masters and multitracks could very well have been in that building when it burned but I don’t know yet. And since I’m the producer and not the owner of the material I don’t have a legal claim to it.”

It’ll be a long road towards more certainty, Ezrin said, as he expects Universal will move ahead with a massive audit before diving deeper to understand what might’ve been digitized to a “good enough” substitute for the original recordings.

Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley said in a recent interview he believes “it’s very possible” at least some first generation copies of his band’s work is gone.

They were signed to Island Records, a subsidiary of Universal Music, and frequently recorded in Los Angeles.

ALGARY — Everything’s coming up rhinestones in Calgary as a new exhibit opening Friday pays tribute to Canada’s flamboyant country music history.

Outfits worn by k.d. lang, Shania Twain and country pioneer Hank Snow will be part of the National Music Centre’s Homegrown Country showcase, which throws open its doors ahead of the Calgary Stampede.

SHANIA TWAIN Among the memorabilia on display is Snow’s vintage “Nudie suit,” a rhinestone-emblazoned outfit decorated with roses and designed by influential American tailor Nudie Cohn.

There’s also one of lang’s quirki-

est looks, a dress adorned with felt cut-outs and miniature farm animals, created by the singer and her mother.

She wore it on The Late Show with David Letterman and on the Jim Henson Hour in 1989.

And Twain’s halter top from her first stadium tour in 1998 will also be part of the collection.

Other items include honky-tonk singer Dick Damron’s banjo, country star Lucille Starr’s stage outfit, and Gordie Tapp’s overalls from the variety TV series Hee Haw. Visitors can also saunter into a full-sized barn where videos of Calgary musicians the Polyjesters and Terra Hazelton will coach them on a traditional “barn dance.”

The exhibit at the NMC, which is part of Studio Bell in downtown Calgary, runs until Jan. 6, 2020.

CANADA NEWS IN BRIEF

Defence minister mum on details of Vice-Admiral Norman settlement OTTAWA — Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan is remaining mum on details of the government’s settlement with Vice-Admiral Mark Norman, citing confidentiality provisions in the deal.

Norman and the government announced on Wednesday that the military’s former second-in-command is retiring after negotiating what they

described as a “mutually acceptable agreement.”

The deal, negotiated over the past two weeks, followed Crown prosecutors dropping their case last month against Norman, who had been charged with breach of trust for allegedly leaking government secrets about a shipbuilding deal.

But details of the deal, including the amount and whether there are any provisions forbidding Norman from talking publicly about the case, remain shrouded in mystery.

In an interview from Brussels where he was attending a NATO meeting, Sajjan declined Thursday to fill in any of the blanks in what he de-

Friday, June 28, 2019

scribed as “good-faith” talks between Norman and the government.

“Unfortunately, because of confidentiality, I can’t provide those details out of respect for the discussions we had there,” he said.

“We can’t discuss the details because of the good-faith agreement that was made.”

The Opposition Conservatives have accused the Liberals of trying to buy Norman’s silence ahead of the fall federal election given the grief the case had caused the government.

Sajjan did not say why the details of the settlement are covered by confidentiality nor would he comment on Norman’s retirement after the

vice-admiral had indicated he wanted to return to service.

“This is decision based on him and the discussions that he has with his family and we have to respect that,” Sajjan said.

“But one thing I can assure you, from the time we were able to re-engage, this was done in good faith to come to this point that’s comfortable for Vice-Admiral Norman as well.”

Norman was suspended from the military in January 2017 and later charged with breach of trust for allegedly leaking government secrets to put pressure on the government to approve a $700-million shipbuilding project.

Canada urged to take international Chinese legal action on genocide jets ‘buzz’

Canadian ships

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

O

TTAWA — The Trudeau government is facing mounting pressure from across the country to take more international action to hold Myanmar to account for the genocide of the Rohingya people.

Thirty-four senators — a third of the Senate — and more than 100 human-rights organizations and advocates sent a joint letter to Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland this week urging Canada to initiate proceedings before the International Court of Justice for breaching the United Nations convention against genocide. The court deals with disputes between states.

In September 2018, Canada became the first country in the world to officially recognize the violence perpetrated against the Rohingya by Myanmar’s security forces as genocide. Canada also stripped Myanmar’s de facto leader, Aung Sun Suu Kyi, of her honorary Canadian citizenship over her inaction on the violence in her country.

But branding the situation a genocide carries with it an international legal obligation to intervene, potentially with force, which is why the push is now on to see Canada take this next step.

“As concerned parliamentarians and members of civil society, we strongly believe that those responsible for the genocide against the Rohingya must be held to account by the international community,” the letter says.

“We firmly believe that Canada is in a position to exercise strong and effective global leadership in response to the genocide by pursing this matter before the International Court of Justice.”

This letter follows several similar letters that have also been sent to Freeland and Justice Minister David Lametti in recent weeks, including

CANADA NEWS IN BRIEF

Defence minister urges ‘de-escalation’ of U.S.-Iran dispute OTTAWA — Canada’s defence minister is calling for calmer heads to prevail as a war of words between the U.S. and Iran threatens to turn into a war of bullets and bombs.

Such a conflict could easily spill over into Iraq and the surrounding region, where around 850 Canadian soldiers are deployed as part of the war against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.

Myanmar’s Rohingya Muslim ethnic minority children stretch their hands out to receive food. Thirty-four senators — a third of the Senate — and more than 100 human-rights organizations and advocates sent a joint letter to Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland this week urging Canada to initiate proceedings before the International Court of Justice for breaching the United Nations convention against genocide. one from an all-party group of MPs who also called for Canada to take international legal action.

In addition, Toronto and Montreal city councils have passed unanimous motions and several other Canadian mayors and rights organizations have sent their own letters to Freeland urging Canada to seek justice for the mass killing and atrocities perpetrated against the Rohingya people in Myanmar.

Last year, the UN human-rights council released a report on its fact-finding mission on three states in Myanmar documenting the systematic targeting of civilian Rohingya by the military, including mass gang rape, sexual slavery and the razing of hundreds of villages.

This followed a report by Canada’s special envoy to Myanmar, Bob Rae, who urged Canada to take a leader-

ship role in the humanitarian crisis — but focused more on calling for increased spending on the migration crisis in the region.

The violence has led nearly 725,000 Rohingya to flee the country into neighbouring Bangladesh.

In a statement on Thursday, Freeland’s deputy press secretary Marie-Pier Baril said the government believes those responsible for the atrocities against the Rohingya Muslims must face justice, noting that Canada has sanctioned key military commanders.

But rather than initiating the process independently, Canada has called on the UN Security Council to refer the situation faced by the Rohingya to the International Criminal Court, which handles charges against individuals of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.

“What we would like to see is de-escalation of this and bring it back from a military conversation and back into the diplomatic sphere,” Sajjan said in an interview with The Canadian Press from Brussels Thursday, where he was concluding two days of meetings with counterparts from across NATO. The dispute revolves around U.S. President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw from an agreement his predecessor Barack Obama signed with Iran that limits Iran’s nuclear program in return for the lifting of sanctions.

Iran has since been accused of attacking several oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman and is on the verge of

stockpiling more uranium than the agreement allowed. The U.S. has imposed new sanctions and launched a cyberattack on an Iranian militia.

The two sides appeared close to blows last week after Iran shot down a U.S. military drone. Trump said he nearly ordered retaliatory strikes against the country but reversed course after advisers told him those would kill 150 Iranians.

Fears nonetheless persist over the potential for a conflict, which would almost certainly have ramifications across the broader Middle East — including in neighbouring Iraq, where Iran has a sizable influence.

SAKA, Japan — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has arrived in Osaka, Japan for the G20 leaders’ summit, with a contact between Chinese fighter jets and Canadian ships in the East China Sea adding a new tension between the two countries.

Trudeau is hoping for progress, or at least fresh support from other countries, in Canada’s disputes with China over agriculture products and China’s arrests of two Canadians in apparent retaliation for Canada’s detention of a Chinese high-tech executive on an extradition warrant from the United States.

The prime minister has no meeting with China’s President Xi Jinping at the summit to do this, but U.S. President Donald Trump committed to raising the detentions of Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor during his own meeting with the prime minister in the Oval Office last Thursday.

Trudeau will also lean on like-minded allies that have already spoken out about the detentions, including France, the U.K., Germany and Spain.

On Friday, he will meet with European partners to discuss a range of issues such as climate change, though the diplomatic issue with China is expected to be raised.

The incident at sea was reported by former journalist Matthew Fisher, now with the Canadian Global Affairs Institute think-tank, who was aboard HMCS Regina on June 24 when two Chinese jets flew within 300 metres of the frigate.

The Regina and the navy’s interim resupply ship, MV Asterix were in the area after travelling in international waters from Vietnam to the coast of North Korea to help the UN prevent North Korean smuggling. That included a transit through the strait between mainland China and Taiwan.

The Defence Department confirmed the flypast in an emailed statement on Thursday, adding that the incident “was not provocative, hazardous, or unexpected given the proximity of the Operation Neon operating area to China.”

Operation Neon is the name of the military’s efforts to crackdown on North Korean smuggling in the East China Sea.

Democratic debate Part II: Clash of the front-runners

M

File photo by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Former vice-president Joe Biden who is 76, will stand at centre stage, shoulder-to-shoulder with the fellow septuagenarian who is his ideological opposite: Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

This week several Democrats visited a facility where hundreds of immigrant children are being held near the debate site.

Thursday night’s participants had the benefit of having seen 10 other Democrats the previous night. More than 15 million people watched the first contest, according to Nielsen Fast National Data. The viewership exceeded every presidential primary debate in the 2008 and 2012 elections.

Together, the debates are the first high-profile step in a presidential primary process expected to stretch deep into next year.

The leading candidates, including Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren

who debated Wednesday night, have shown little interest in attacking their Democratic brethren directly at the start of a marathon campaign. But an effort to undermine either Biden or Sanders, from any number of directions, wouldn’t be a shock.

South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg and California Sen. Kamala Harris are among the better known candidates in the next tier. Also on stage: Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York and Michael Bennet of Colorado, former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, New York businessman Andrew Yang, California Rep. Eric Swalwell and author and social activist Marianne Williamson.

GERRYMANDERING

Court decision could set up fights over race

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

IAMI — The Democrats’ second presidential debate in two nights features most of the 2020 class’ strongest competitors — according to early polling, at least — none with more to lose than former Vice-President Joe Biden, who has party establishment backing but faces an increasingly restive and liberal base.

The second 10 candidates face each other and the nation Thursday night in a prime-time confrontation sure to underscore differences along lines of race, gender, generation and ideology that are starting to shape the party’s winding search for a nominee to take on President Donald Trump.

Biden, who is 76, will stand at centre stage, shoulder-to-shoulder with the fellow septuagenarian who is his ideological opposite: Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. The 77-year-old self-described democratic socialist has pulled his party to the left on key issues, calling for a political revolution that would transform the private health care system into a government-financed one and mandate a redistribution of wealth.

Sanders’ appeal relies on emotion, often anger. Biden preaches pragmatism and relative moderation.

And they represent only two of ten views on the stage Thursday night.

The showdown takes place in Florida, a general election battleground that could well determine whether Trump wins a second term next year.

the first to visit dwarf planet Pluto.

Dragonfly beat out nearly a dozen proposed projects, including a mission to collect samples from a nearby comet. The drone is slated to launch in 2026 and arrive at Titan in 2034.

The plan is to land on some of Titan’s dunes and later on a crater. Development costs for the mission are capped at around $850 million.

“What really excites me about this mission is that Titan has all the ingredients needed for life,” said Lori Glaze, director of NASA’s planetary science division.

Titan is a haze-covered world with a thick atmosphere. The moon has lakes of methane, mountains of ice

and an ocean below the surface, making it an attractive place to explore whether its environment can support primitive life.

“We are absolutely thrilled, and everyone is just raring to go and take the next steps in exploring Titan,” said project leader Elizabeth Turtle of Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Maryland.

Titan was last studied by the international Cassini-Huygens mission. In 2017, the Cassini spacecraft plunged into Saturn, ending two decades of exploration

ASHINGTON — When North Carolina drew its most recent political maps, state leaders split a historically black university in Greensboro into two congressional districts that critics say diluted the voting power of African Americans on campus.

Lawmakers defended it as partisan gerrymandering — a tactic that the U.S. Supreme Court refused to block Thursday. But opponents cite it as a classic example where political gerrymandering can have racial consequences.

“It’s partisan, but it’s also based on race as well,” said Kylah Guion, a junior at North Carolina A&T University in Greensboro, North Carolina. Her university is one of the largest areas of black young voters in North Carolina.

Experts and advocates say the court’s decision to stay out of partisan gerrymandering decisions with its ruling on Thursday may make it more difficult to suss out and remedy illegal political line drawing meant to diminish the voting power of minorities.

Dividing voters by race is still illegal in the United States and can be banned by the federal courts. But the high court decided it could not rule on cases where lawmakers divvy up voters by party to give themselves advantages during elections.

That will leave it up to the courts to decide legal challenges from people who believe political maps were illegally drawn by race. But the blurred line between race- and political-based gerrymandering could complicate those efforts.

This will become more of an issue after the upcoming Census and lawmakers around the country start drawing new maps in 2021. Judges will have to figure out the motivations of congressional and state district line drawers.

“This decision will make it harder for courts to figure out racial discriminatory motives where they do exist, to the extent they do exist, because line drawers will be able to say that ‘All of our decisions were to gain partisan advantage,’” said Rebecca Green, co-director of the Election Law Program, a joint project of the William & Mary Law School and the National Center for State Courts. “So I think it will be very hard for plaintiffs to find evidence or to demonstrate the racial predominance that they would need to demonstrate to win a claim of racial gerrymandering.”

Jurisdictions have tried masking racial gerrymandering as political gerrymandering in the past, resulting in a mixed bag of rulings.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Kicking the coffee habit can be a real grind

D

ear Annie: I used to drink coffee only now and then, just for enjoyment. But since my job has become more intense and stressful, I’ve found myself needing at least a cup a day to keep me alert and functioning at full capacity. I don’t like that I’m dependent on caffeine now. I notice that when I haven’t had coffee by noon or so, I feel crabby and headachey. So Annie I keep drinking it daily so I can get Lane my work done. Is there some alternative? I want to be able to work without relying upon everyone’s favorite bean. — Caffeine Dependent Dear Caffeine Dependent: If caffeine is the only thing you are trying to quit, then you are in pretty good shape. However, if you really want to stop drinking coffee, there are lots of great alternatives. Matcha tea is a very popular one. It is a form of green tea made by steaming and grinding the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. In contrast to drinking green tea, you are getting the entire leaf with matcha.

A second alternative could be lemon water.

While it won’t give you quite the jolt of caffeine, it will provide your body with lots of nutritious vitamin C. Chicory root and B vitamins also help with energy levels. Ginseng is found in many popular energy drinks.

Becoming dependent on coffee is a legitimate concern, and it can produce headaches and all sorts of other problems.

But my real concern is the stress of your job.

Stress is a lot more dangerous than caffeine. I would have an honest talk with your boss about your workload. Do it in a very professional manner — not coming from a place of laziness but rather wanting to make sure your body is able to do the work demanded of you at an optimal pace. Sometimes setting boundaries for yourself is the healthiest thing you can do for all parties involved.

Dear Annie: I have two best friends from college.

I have good relationships with both of them, but one is much more emotionally available. The other is hard to pin down. When we want to hang out as a group — which takes coordinating, as we’ve since moved to different states — he more often than not makes excuses to get out of meeting up. I don’t

think he’s lost interest in being our friend. During college, he was super down to do stuff with us all the time. But now that there’s distance and logistics involved, we don’t appear to be worth the effort.

We’ve brought this up to him before, that it hurts us to feel like he doesn’t care. His defense is that he “cares about everyone equally,” so we’re not given any sort of extra effort for being closer-than-normal friends. How do we deal with this? I know we can’t force him to make himself available, but it is heartbreaking to watch a yearslong relationship fizzle due to something so meager as distance. — Angry at Apathetic Amigo!

Dear Angry: Best friends might not be around all the time or even most of the time, but they’re there when you need them. What matters is that you can still count on this amigo when it counts. In the meantime, stop putting in extra effort to coordinate with him if it’s causing you to resent him. Give him some time and space, and let him reach out when he’s ready to commit to getting together. Distance — whether of space or years — is not enough to dissolve the bonds of true friendship.

HEALTH

odds of developing obesity, 37 per cent higher odds of diabetes and 60 per cent increased risk of high blood pressure, compared to those who got the fewest calories from such foods.

The study was commissioned by Heart and Stroke, which notes that obesity, diabetes and high blood pressure are all risk factors for heart disease and stroke.

They are calling for front-of-package nutrition labels and restrictions on the way ultra-processed foods and beverages are marketed to children. The study also concludes with a plea for public policies that make whole and minimally processed foods and meals “more available, affordable, accessible and appealing for all segments of the population.”

The study, based on data from the 2015 Canadian Community Health Survey, found consumption of ultra-processed foods “alarmingly high” among all Canadians and especially in younger people, those with less formal education, living in rural areas, born in Canada and people with Indigenous identity.

Ultra-processed foods contain little to no whole food, note the study’s authors, who describe them as high in calories, free sugars, sodium or saturated fats.

“Not only do ultra-processed foods not con-

tribute to a healthy diet, but they displace other healthier foods that do,” report author JeanClaude Moubarac, an assistant professor of nutrition at the University of Montreal, said in a release.

“The higher the consumption of ultra-processed foods, the lower the consumption of real, whole foods.”

Survey participants said they consumed an average of 1,819 calories daily, with about 40 per cent coming from unprocessed or minimally processed foods such as fresh, frozen or dry fruits, vegetables, plain meats and milk. Another seven per cent of calories came from processed culinary ingredients like sugar, salt, oils and butter and another seven per cent from processed foods like canned fruits and vegetables, artisanal breads and cheeses.

The most commonly consumed ultra-processed food included pre-made meals, fast food and frozen dishes at 8.6 per cent of daily calories mass-produced breads at 8.6 per cent and cookies, cakes, candies and other sweets at 5.3 per cent.

Sweetened milk-based products and juices and margarine were also cited as part of an ultra-processed diet.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Twins are in the mood to chat! Your ruler Mercury is in your communication zone. So you’re keen to express your ideas and enjoy plenty of stimulating conversations with interesting people.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): There is a tendency to overspend, as your wish list is a lot larger than your current bank balance. Mercury encourages you to become much more financially literate. Knowledge is power!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Communication planet Mercury is visiting your sign. So it’s the perfect time to express yourself – via the spoken and written word – in a wide variety of creative and colourful ways.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t become too rigid in your approach and believe there is only one way to achieve your goals and dreams. Use creative visualization to imagine your preferred future – and then pounce.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): With Mercury navigating through your networking zone, expand your peer group to include a stimulating and creative new crowd. Plus use your intuition to help solve a frustrating family problem.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The planets are giving you

a professional power surge. You’re confident about your abilities, but that must be tempered with good communication skills and a willingness to compromise.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Mercury is moving through your travel zone, so it’s time to communicate with your overseas connections. If you amp up the Sagittarian charm, then you’ll uncover some helpful long-term contacts.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Coupled Capricorn – deep discussions with your partner could lead to a much-needed relationship breakthrough. If you are single and looking for love, then you’ll have to be creative and proactive.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): With Mercury now visiting your relationship zone, the more you communicate with loved ones, the better you’ll feel. Don’t be too independent.

If you need help, then reach out to others and ask.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Mercury is moving through your job zone. So aim to be more curious, creative and communicative at work. If you slow down, stagnate or procrastinate, then you’ll just be left behind.

Joanne Madeline Moore is an internationally syndicated astrologer and columnist.

Study links diet high in ultra-processed food to increased odds of chronic disease OTTAWA — New research from the University of Montreal links diets high in ultra-processed foods including carbonated drinks, mass-produced cookies and ice cream, and sweetened yogurts to chronic disease.

The research was based on Statistics Canada data from a 2015 survey that found ultra-processed foods accounted for an average of 47 per cent of daily calories consumed by adults.

In the survey, 13,608 participants aged 19 or older recounted what they ate and drank the day before and self-reported their height and weight, and whether they had diabetes and/or high blood pressure.

Those who got more calories from ultra-processed food were found to have 31 per cent greater

Red Deer’s charm is its small-town vibe R

BY SUSAN ZIELINSKI ADVOCATE STAFF

ed Deer may be a city, but it still has that small-town appeal.

Local historian Michael Dawe said he has a lot of memories of Red Deer while the community was still on the smaller side.

“When my father was growing up, Red Deer was 3,000. When I was growing up, it was 15,000 to 20,000. It was a much smaller community, so you got to know a lot of people,” Dawe said.

He said he rarely goes anywhere in Red Deer where he doesn’t run into someone he knows, many whom also have deep roots in the community.

“My mother’s family was a farm family on the southeast side of Red Deer going back well over 100 years,” Dawe said.

Former mayor Morris Flewwelling, who has called Red Deer home for 56 years, said the community tends to be quite stable. It grew quite rapidly in the 1980s and 1990s, but there is still a feeling of community.

“People like living here, so they live here a long

time. You get a feeling that people know one another,” Flewwelling said.

He said regular events like the Red Deer Public Market, amenities like the parks, and facilities like the Enmax Centrium give people an opportunity to gather and visit.

People get to know each other working for big employers like Red Deer College, Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre and Nova Chemicals, which contributes to a sense of community.

“Red Deer used to be a little bit more standoffish. You kind of had to make your mark in Red Deer before you were totally accepted.

But I think that has drifted away.

I think people are welcomed for what they can contribute.”

Flewwelling said Red Deer is far enough away from Calgary and Edmonton that it has an identity of its own, but it’s geographically small enough so people venture beyond their own neighbourhoods, and it doesn’t take long to get from one end of the city to the other.

Dawe agreed it’s easy to get around Red Deer.

“People may complain about rush-hour traffic, but in really backed up conditions, you’re only backed up for five minutes or so.

In bigger communities, you can be stuck out on an arterial road and be not moving for 20 minutes, 45 minutes or longer. We don’t have those kinds of problems,” Dawe said.

Tara Lodewyk, the city’s planning services director, said the ease of commuting around the city is definitely one of the traits people appreciate about Red Deer. Many only work a few kilometres from home and can still drive home for lunch.

“You’ll hear it often when people describe the quality of life in Red Deer, that it’s 10 minutes to get anywhere within the city,” Lodewyk said.

She said the trail network is an option for people who want to cycle or walk, which also helps them travel around the city.

Lodewyk said having a central downtown, that isn’t broken up

with freeways, with older buildings, treed boulevards and classic lamp posts, creates a friendly pedestrian environment and adds to the sense of tradition.

Dawe said Red Deer’s rural roots are another reason for its sense of cohesiveness. That agricultural connection continues to this day with Agri-Trade Equipment Expo at Westerner Park.

“Our annual summer festival is Westerner Days, which is a pretty much agricultural and rural based,” Dawe said.

Red Deer also has a small farm museum right in the middle of the city — Sunnybrook Farm Museum.

Museum executive director Ian Warwick said many of the volunteers at Sunnybrook have an agricultural background and they donate more than 10,000 hours a year to maintaining the site.

“There is a sense of personal ownership when you have that commitment from volunteers. I think that’s what makes Red Deer unique,” Warwick said.

Several other community groups have faithful volunteers, like Red Deer Food Bank, Red Deer Festival of Trees, Red Deer Christmas Bureau, and recently, the 2019 Canada Winter Games, he said.

“There are so many volunteers who are willing to come out and invest in their community.”

In a bigger city, people just become numbers, he said.

“In a city of 100,000, one person can make a big difference, so that’s what makes me love Red Deer so much. It has a real impact, just one person,” Warwick said.

Come for the jobs, stay for the lifestyle

BY REG WARKENTIN SPECIAL TO THE ADVOCATE

G

oing to university, I lived in the northwest of Calgary, while one of my best friends who had already entered the workforce, lived in the southwest.

In good traffic, it was at least a 40-minute drive.

We got together twice in one year.

Growing up in Red Deer, we lived two blocks away from each other. With another close friend, we would ride our bikes to school together and hang out five or six days of the week, just shooting the breeze, mountain biking, playing pool, ping-pong, and hockey at the outdoor rink across the street.

“THROUGHOUT THE YEARS, A FEW DIFFERENT JOB OPPORTUNITIES IN BIGGER CITIES HAVE COME AND GONE, AS MY FAMILY COULDN’T FATHOM GIVING UP THE SIGNIFICANT LIFESTYLE BENEFITS AFFORDED BY LIVING HERE.” We would ride our bikes across the city to visit other friends, or just to explore and check out one of the many trails scattered in and around Red Deer.

Reflecting back, the size, layout, and culture and amenities within our community created a perfect lifestyle for a kid growing up. It is something I took for granted at the time, yet enjoyed immensely.

Now as an adult in my mid-thirties, with a house

Contributed photo

Reg Warkentin, policy and advocacy manager with the Red Deer & District Chamber of Commerce, believes the city’s greatest strengths are its size, mobility, infrastructure and amenities. and family of my own, it is this convenience and lifestyle that I consciously appreciate and value as we choose to make Red Deer our home.

Most weekday mornings, I first drive my son to school, then my daughter to dayhome, before coming to work at the chamber.

The three stops require travelling 12 kilometres

and take just over 15 minutes to complete.

My co-workers and I have been jogging at lunch to train for a fun run. Leaving from our office on Gaetz Avenue, it is 500 metres to the beautiful trail system that runs along Piper Creek.

From there, we have access to a seemingly endless trail system that intertwines and connects all parts of the city.

My family uses the same trails on the weekend to take our kids to different parks and playgrounds, and to ride to community events like the farmers’ markets.

Throughout the years, a few different job opportunities in bigger cities have come and gone, as my family couldn’t fathom giving up the significant lifestyle benefits afforded by living here.

Red Deer certainly isn’t unique in being a midsized city with short commutes and a trail system.

Yet, the quantity and quality of ours is exceptional and an attribute worthy of boasting about and consciously appreciating.

A few years back, when the economy was much stronger, the chamber had regular inquiries from businesses considering moving operations to central Alberta.

Along with our partners, we would put together packages outlining the benefits of having a business here. This would include attributes such as land availability, labour statistics, and tax and regulatory information. It would also include, partially because it was asked for specifically, information on the culture and lifestyle.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6 I remember one meeting, in particular, with representatives from a German manufacturer whose paramount consideration was whether their German employees and families would enjoy living here.

We were quite certain they would and were able to put together a great package saying why. It’s really too bad oil prices crashed.

As we consider a growth and development strat-

egy for the next 10, 25, or 100 years, I believe it is absolutely essential Red Deer focus its efforts on maintaining and building upon what is our city’s greatest strength: being a mid-sized city with great mobility, infrastructure and amenities.

For most businesses, quantifiable metrics such as tax rates, economic growth, permitting costs and turnaround times will be of primary concern when considering where to locate.

But a business is only as strong as the people

Red Deer’s downtown reasonates with music during Ross Street Patio concerts

BY LANA MICHELIN ADVOCATE STAFF

P

lanning outdoor events is always a gamble in central Alberta, where snowflakes can appear during any month of

the year.

But when the celestial elements align just right — the sun is shining, the sky’s a cloudless blue and there’s nary a hailstone in sight — there’s nowhere better to be than listening to live music on the Ross Street Patio in Red Deer.

Diane Hermary and her friends rarely miss a Wednesday patio show — the music starts at 4:30 p.m. to coincide with the Downtown Farmer’s Market and goes until 6:30 p.m.

“For me, it’s about creating community and a vibrant downtown,” said Hermary.

But it’s also about hanging out with friends, hearing great tunes, and supporting local artists and entrepreneurs along Ross Street.

“We’re always there on Wednesdays,” added Hermary, who enjoys the summertime vibe.

Patio concerts can also be heard on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

There are monthly Friday night Patio Parties from 6 to 9 p.m. on July 12 and Aug. 9. As well, Saturday Socials are now held from 6 to 10 p.m. on July 20, Aug. 17 and Sept. 14.

Many assets and attractions in Red Deer

BY SAM AND BONNIE DENHAAN SPECIAL TO THE ADVOCATE

R

ed Deer is a midsize city that has a large number of assets and attractions, which we appreciate.

We like the parks and trail system, which is very accessible and well maintained. The city has, in time, set aside wonderful natural spaces such as Kerry Wood Nature Center, Sunnybrook Farm, an extensive trail system and Fort Normandeau.

These were spaces set aside before the inevitable urban growth and development. Red Deer is surrounded by rich agricultural land that enhances the natural beauty of the landscape through the seasons.

We are not original to Red Deer, but moved here after my retirement from government service in the Northwest Territories. After living in larger and smaller communities, we settled in Red Deer at the recommendation of a family member.

The choice came quickly after a weekend fly-in to view a number of properties. Preferring a simple lifestyle, we were happy to have found a home to fit our needs. Our list of preferences included a smaller bungalow in a quiet neighbourhood with public

Only after settling in did we become aware of and enjoy the community identity of Red Deer.

Being lifelong church members, we joined the nearby Sunnybrook United Church, where we were introduced to a number of like-minded people active in community services and interests.

We became aware of and joined the Golden Circle and Central Alberta Council on Aging, Friends of Medicare, and Stephen Lewis’ Foundation

for Grandmas for Africa.

In 1998, Habitat for Humanity had a chapter in Red Deer, which was inactive. The availability of the Red Deer north railway lands, and the city’s need for lower income housing created opportunity for new activity building a significant number of single family houses.

My years in the construction industry let me contribute to this project.

Support from many suppliers and contractors and volunteers helped families to add their hours of sweat equity together to build a community. The Habitat for Humanity ReStore became a location to donate and reuse materials for lower cost.

The critical need for more affordable housing resulted in the mayor’s taskforce on ending homelessness and the Central Alberta Poverty Reduction Alliance, which is an ongoing interest of mine.

We have enjoyed a large circle of friends and the companionship and mutual support through all these groups of community-minded citizens.

We hope for the heart of Red Deer to continue to care for and serve all its citizens, regardless of income and circumstances.

Sam and Bonnie Denhaan are a retired Red Deer couple.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8 In inclement weather, Friday Patio Parties relocate to The Hub on Ross (4936 50th St.) and Wednesday shows are performed inside LVs Vinyl Cafe.

Twyla Joy Lapointe, a staff member at The Hub on Ross Street, is also a big fan of the Ross Street Patio, saying “These concerts add flavour to our community.”

“Our Alberta musicians offer some of the best music… While we have our Alberta climate to contend with, we’re always grateful for the music,” said Lapointe.

The melodies and harmonies come courtesy of talented local bands of all genres — from country to pop to rap and rock.

The picnic tables and umbrellas are provided by the city. Residents can settle in amongst the flower baskets and cafe tables and enjoy a free show in the relaxing artsy atmosphere.

RDC benefits all of central Alberta

File photo by Advocate staff

The Gary W. Harris Canada Games Centre was home to wheelchair basketball, short track speed skating, figure skating, badminton and squash events during the 2019 Canada Winter Games.

ed Deer College doesn’t just impact the lives of students. It is a benefit to all of central Alberta.

RDC adds cultural, social and economic value to the region, with a total annual impact of $539.6 million, which translates to 7,316 jobs supported, president and CEO Joel Ward said at a Red Deer & District Chamber of Commerce luncheon earlier this year.

When RDC officially becomes a university, that impact will be increased, he added.

“Our goal would be to double the economic impact of this institution and double our enrolment in

the next 10 years,” said Ward.

The college had many notable highlights in the past year that impacted the community: gaining university status, the opening of the Gary W. Harris Canada Games Centre, a new residence building and Alternative Energy Lab, the creation of a partnership with the Central Alberta Child Advocacy Centre, hosting the Canada Collegiate Athletic Association Men’s Volleyball Championships and officially revealing the institution’s new name – Red Deer University.

“This has been a year unlike any other year in the 55-year history of this college. … It sets the stage for a future we will all enjoy and benefit from.”

The CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10 Ward said RDC is committed to introducing “innovative programming,” such as cyber security and artificial intelligence.

“We have to have programs that will meet current and future job needs.”

Red Deer University will be “different” from other universities in Canada, he added.

“Different for us means meeting the needs of students and communities in an applied and practical way as a comprehensive, regional, teaching university.”

Ward said after becoming RDU, the institution will continue to offer apprenticeship training, career certificates and diplomas, academic upgrading, university transfer and continuing education, as well as having its own degrees.

“What we do now,

11

we will continue to do. We will evolve and grow over time.

“It’s not like we’re flipping a switch, and all of a sudden, we’re a university offering every university program. It takes time … to get that work done.”

At the luncheon, Ward said there were two more things that need to be done before RDC can officially become RDU: change the governance structure to match university standards and create a 10-year academic plan and budget.

Peter Nunoda will officially take over as RDC president on Sept. 3.

“The future is very bright as we work together to achieve what this community and region have dreamed about for a long time,” said Nunoda.

“It is our responsibility to make the vision of a high-quality comprehensive post-secondary institution a reality for generations to come.”

Continuing A Century-Old Story Welcome to our 100-year celebration. This year, we’re not just celebrating a century-old business: we’re celebrating the continuation of a century-old story, one that planted its roots in the heart of this remarkable community.

When Mitchell & Jewell first opened its door 100 years ago – under a different name, A.B. Mitchell Jewellers – I’m sure no one had any idea the legacy that lied ahead. And yet, since day one, our core values have remained constant: the importance of an independent, family-owned and operated business that works as hard for its customers as they do for their community.

A.B. Mitchell opened the business in 1919. Focusing on establishing a name synonymous with quality, Mitchell later invited Bob and Doris Jewell to become his business partners to expand

that quality name with that of refined creativity and artistry. In 1979, Richard, Bob and Doris Jewell’s son, acquired the family business and continued his parent’s legacy, ensuring customers received quality service, as well as exemplary products. In 2012, it was time for the story to be handed off to new owners, namely me and Granada.

Though we purchased Mitchell & Jewell nearly 8 years ago, we’ve been in the jewellery industry for much longer. As secondgeneration jewellers, we’ve learned a lot from those before us, including Granada’s parents, Larry and Shirley, who owned a jewellery store in Grand Forks, BC and later in Whitecourt, AB. Granada and I worked alongside them—making it a true family business—until their retirement in 2001, at which point we took over the store. 12 years later, when we were granted the opportunity

to become a part of the Mitchell & Jewell family, we both knew we had to take it. The chance to contribute to this company’s, as well as this community’s, story was not an opportunity we were willing to miss.

To celebrate this 100-year milestone, we’ve chosen to give back to the people who made the last 100 years possible: you, our amazing and welcoming community. For our main event, we’ll be giving away one diamond – each with a unique serial number – for the first 50 weeks of the year. At the end of the year, we’ll make a draw from these serial numbers. The winner will receive a custom-made, $20,000 Canadian Maple Leaf Diamond pendant.

But, that’s just the beginning of our celebrations. We’ll be announcing other events, giveaways, and promotions as we move into 2019, all aimed at

commemorating our centennial: a hundred years of being part of this community.

Mitchell & Jewell has a remarkable story behind it, one focused on the quality of a hardworking family business. To this story, we hope to add a bit of humility and thanks, of giving back to the community that has given us so much.

And that’s our story, so far.

Though, hopefully, the best parts are yet to come.

Sean (& Granada) Robinson

From Mine to Finger Sean and Granada Robinson were recently part of an incredible journey to EkatiTM, Canada’s first diamond mine and the birthplace of Canada’s premier diamond brand, Maple Leaf DiamondsTM. Their firsthand experience provided a behind the scenes look at the responsible mining practices in the Northwest Territories, where the utmost respect for the sustainability of the natural environment and the wellbeing of the northern people is paramount.

“I THINK THAT RED DEER IS A GOOD PLACE TO LIVE IN BECAUSE THEY HAVE AWESOME MALLS. THE SWIMMING POOLS/RECREATION CENTRES ARE ALSO FUN TO VISIT. IF YOU WANNA GO BACK IN TIME TO A VICTORIAN STYLE, VISIT DOWNTOWN! I RECOMMEND WALKING IN DOWNTOWN DURING CHRISTMASTIME BECAUSE THEY LIGHT UP THE PLAZA AND IT LOOKS REALLY BEAUTIFUL. RED DEER IN THE FUTURE IS GOING TO BE BETTER. WE ARE CURRENTLY EXPANDING (IN MY OPINION) OUR BEST MALL, ADDING MORE LUXURY BRANDS/STORES. I CAN ALREADY IMAGINE THE BRIGHT FUTURE OF RED DEER.”

The key to understanding central Alberta’s colourful history “We now have the opportunity to tell the stories of the artifacts in the collection in creative ways that will involve visitors of all ages in a journey of discovery.”

From time to time, exhibitions from other museums will be brought to Red Deer “in order to share our delight and curiosity about the art, culture and history of the rest of the world.”

An art exhibit, Kinship: Images of Family and Community from the MAG’s Indigenous and Inuit Art Collection, will be on display until July 8.

Unfamiliar Selves, an exhibit featuring paintings and sculptures by Jude Briebel and Tammy Salzl, will run from July 6 to Sept. 29, and Hot Mess: A Residency in Motherhood, which explores and embraces the chaotic, cluttered and cyclical nature of motherhood, runs July 20 to Sept. 29.

The Red Deer Museum and Art Gallery aims to help visitors understand the people, history and culture of central Alberta.

The institution, which began as the Red Deer and District Museum in 1973, consists of more than 90,000 artifacts.

It includes “one of the finest collections of clothing and textiles in Western Canada, as well as an extensive collection of First Nations and Inuit art,” according to the museum.

Walking around Red Deer and meeting people makes this city special

BY PEGGY FREEMAN SPECIAL TO THE ADVOCATE

A

fter living in Red Deer for 52 years, I’m adding up what I love about the place.

Hmm, everyone says, “The trail system.” True, true, but what about … the library, the dog parks, the pools (four of them), the water park? These are all wonderful, but all of these are “things.”

Some folks we’ve missed on winter walks, some pessimists are still wearing parkas.

Down at the corner, we’ll see the deer who’ve come out of the forest to sit and sun on the grass median. They ignore us and we ignore them.

Well, you get the picture of our (almost) daily walks. It sounds like the neighbourhood is more dogs than people, but the two go together. Even the elderly retriever, just past the deer corner, lifts his head from his porch and says “Voof.” It’s all we expect; he’s quite elderly.

Of course, there are nice people everywhere, not just in my neighbourhood.

I was in Tim’s one day, waiting in line for my coffee. The young man in front of me turned and said,

“Can I buy you a coffee?”

I said, “Are you into old ladies, or what?”

He laughed and said, “I’m a long way from home and you remind me of my mom.”

So we talked, and (being a busybody) I nagged him to phone home.

I used to work at the bookstore and I loved all those readers, but retirement put me into the library as a patron. Don’t let anyone tell you that libraries are passe. The place is humming with activities, conversation and outreach.

So, illiterate rule-breaking dogs, sassy cats, weather-watching walkers, to say nothing of homesick Tim’s customers, it’s the people of Red Deer that chat you up and cheer you up. It’s home.

Thank You Red Deer!

For your loyalty & support along with all the votes for Advocate file photo

Peggy Freeman has lived in Red Deer for more than five decades.

I have to say, “The people” — especially the ones in my neighbourhood, where I’ve lived for 50 years and walked the perimeters of the subdivision hundreds of times. Let me tell you about those walks, those people, and those pets.

It’s a spring evening, and a good one for a walk.

We head west into the sun. Two little girls are dancing on the porch next door, radio blasting.

There were 64 kids on this street when we arrived long ago with three more. Now, there are about 12, with two new babies.

People are sweeping sidewalks and turning soil in the flower beds. One couple is washing their plastic fence with white cloths and soapy water.

Our old friend Marvin, the white-muzzled dachshund, is strolling with his owner. She and I agree that winter is over at last.

Babe, a young girl pup from next door, is likely out too. She gets many walks.

On the east side of the schoolyard, a ball game begins. We watch long enough to see white pants sliding into home plate.

The soccer game on the south side of the schoolyard features some new Canadians. The handsome players are varying shades of brown and the game is fast.

Two big dogs are by the monkey bars. A round sign with a horizontal line says they are not allowed, but who knew? Besides, somebody is throwing a Frisbee. We pass the church and the corner store. Here and there, we meet friends and dogs out for walks; we learned the dogs’ named before we met the owners.

Rich history on display downtown

W

hether you’re a tourist or a regular resident of Red Deer, exploring the downtown can provide a rich experience of the city’s history through its collection of statues.

Part of these statues is what’s called The Ghost Collection, an attraction initiated by the Downtown Business Association designed to tell the history of the community.

It is one of the largest life-size bronze sculpture collections in the country, according to the City of Red Deer.

A walking tour can be found on the City of Red Deer’s website at www.reddeer.ca.

ABOVE: This statue, done by Danek Mozdzenski in 1996, is of Francis Wright Galbraith enjoying a coffee while reading the Red Deer Advocate. Galbraith became the owner and editor of the Advocate back in 1906. Also a politician, Galbraith happened to be the first mayor of the newly incorporated City of Red Deer in 1913.

In this sculpture, created by Brian McArthur in 2012, Julietta Sorensen is looking for her husband, Gordon, to arrive on the last bus of the day. The sculpture is titled Waiting for Gordon, a significant piece, as the Sorensens started a bus service in Red Deer and Red Deer County in 1933. They later sold their bus service to the City of Red Deer in the 1960s, which led to the city’s current public transit system.

LEFT: Created by Brian McArthur and Dawn Detarando of Voyager Art & Tile in 2005, this sculpture is titled Brick Rabbit. Made with brick and glass, the piece has pedestrians wanting a close-up look at this largerthan-life brick rabbit.

ABOVE: This symbolic sculpture, called Choices, is of a railway worker confronting a dog standing on his hard-earned money. After the Great Depression, many workers distrusted banks and wanted more control over their assets. Because of this, the credit union concept of banking became popular in the late 1930s and early 1940s. This was created by Barbara Paterson in 1995.

Gaetz was one of Red Deer’s early founding fathers.

Here, he gazes down the street of the town he helped to create. He’d often be found talking with members of the community throughout the city.

ABOVE: Created by Brian McArthur in 2004, this sculpture, titled Doris & Mickey, is centred around Doris Forbes’ family, who found a mauled beaver in 1939 and nursed it back to health. Doris bonded with the beaver and the two were inseparable. The beaver, named Mickey, was soon sent off to their garage, as he loved gnawing on the wooden furniture. The story ended up making national headlines and over 20,000 people began to visit the famous beaver.

TOP LEFT: This statue is called Sound the Alarm. The driver of the horses hurries to throw his coat on as he responds to a call of a fire. In the early days, excitement and tension were a big part of fire fighting as men and horses were called to action. The sculpture was done by Robert K. Spaith in 1999.

Food forest is more than something nice to look at

BY MAMTA LULLA ADVOCATE STAFF

Photo by Mamta Lulla/Advocate staff

(From left) Naveah, Jacek, Brittany (back), Phoenix (front) and Kael Jevne at the green space on Odstone Green.

A

n Oriole Park resident started with a vision: to have green space that provides more than just nice looks.

The dream started about three years ago – which is also when Brittany Jevne decided to have a forest garden in her neighbourhood. Her then “tiny dream” became a project for the Oriole Park Community Association.

This summer, the Oriole Food Forest is expected to come to fruition when the community plants edibles such as strawberries, rhubarbs, horseradish, spearmint, Saskatoon berries and so on. The goal is to get all the perennials in the forest, so they don’t have to be replanted each summer.

“Everything that’s going to be planted in there will either be beneficial to another plant, or it will be edible,” the Red Deer mom said.

The space, at Odstone Green and Oxbow, is one of the largest green spaces in Red Deer. Here, a pear-shaped 40-by-70 foot part of the land will be converted into a food forest on Odstone Green, said Jevne.

“This one food forest will be put up by us, the community, and will be maintained by the community as well, except for the trees, which will be planted at a later date, because the city wants to maintain the trees due to disease control,” Jevne said.

THANKS TO OUR INCREDIBLE CUSTOMERS!

She said every summer, the association will host an event, such as taking out the weeds, to maintain the forest.

Apart from providing free berries for your Saskatoon berry pie in the next few years, the space will also bring people together.

“It’s to improve environmental and social conditions by creating a vibrant and healthy forest for Oriole Park, but is open to everyone,” she said.

Jevne wanted a safe space for her four children to explore and learn about where our food comes from.

“I am studying to be an herbalist, so we like to go out and find plants that are edible, medicinal, and I wanted somewhere safe where kids could do that.”

The forest will also serve as a natural wind breaker, and attract and provide nesting sites for pollinators and other small animals.

The ground work started last summer.

This summer, the Oriole Park Community Association hosted a fundraiser to raise money for the project. The goal was just over $2,000.

The association has also been working on an agreement with the City of Red Deer to get the forest moving forward.

Jevne said doors were knocked on and no one in the neighbourhood disagreed with the project.

Jevne said the association is still looking for donations. Find Oriole Park Community Association-Red Deer on Facebook to make a donation.

Red Deer’s recreation facilities are top notch for all sports

BY SEAN MCINTOSH ADVOCATE STAFF

T

here’s nothing like hitting the ice to play a game of hockey.

And that’s coming from someone who skates like a deer trapped on a frozen pond.

Whether it’s Servus Arena, the Collicutt Centre, the Kinsmen Community Arenas, the Gary W. Harris Canada Games Centre, Kinex Arena, or even one of the outdoor rinks put in various communities every winter (one rink is even conveniently located outside my home), Red Deer has plenty of on-ice opportunities for hockey lovers.

While I would like to blame the rinks’ quality of ice for my inability to skate consistently without falling on my rear end, I unfortunately cannot. The quality of the ice rivals the high quality of the facilities.

The places I’ve lived before Red Deer didn’t have such solid places to play the game. With certain facilities being newer – the Gary W. Harris Canada Games Centre and Servus Arena – and the older rinks being impressively cared for, it’s hard to remember what it was like to play in some of the older, broken down facilities that I grew up with in Ontario.

Red Deer families should be excited by the quality of the city’s recreation facilities, and other cities should certainly be jealous.

It isn’t just hockey though. The city offers a number of fantastic facilities you can visit to stay active.

While I mainly use the Collicutt Centre for hockey, that doesn’t mean it’s all the facility has to offer. There’s an indoor swimming pool and water slide, an indoor field house and even a climbing wall.

Over in the west side of town, people can enjoy the G.H. Dawe Community Centre. The facility features fitness classes, a gymnasium and a pool.

The Michener Aquatic Centre, which features a six-lane, 25-metre indoor pool, sauna and a dryland workout arena, is another place Red Deerians can stay active.

It’s no secret that Red Deer’s recreation facilities help make the city a sports destination – just look at the 2019 Canada Winter Games.

Some of Canada’s best young athletes were using the finest facilities Red Deer has to offer during the event, which ran from Feb. 15 to March 3.

The Gary W. Harris Canada Games Centre, which officially opened last August, was the home to a number of sporting events during the games, including thrill-

ing wheelchair basketball competitions.

Shortly after the games, the facility hosted a national collegiate volleyball tournament.

“Three years in the making, the $88-million Gary W. Harris Canada Games Centre is the result of the work of so many. They should be proud of their contributions to a centre that will serve our students, our community and our region for generations to come,” Red Deer College president and CEO Joel Ward wrote in his Red Deer Advocate column shortly after the centre’s grand opening.

Ward was certainly right about that.

The impressive facility has just about everything someone could want from a recreational standpoint.

A place to lift weights: check.

A place to play basketball: check.

A place to play hockey: check.

The centre even has a place to play racquetball. I can’t say I’ve ever played the game, or even thought about playing it, but it’s exciting to have a place in the city to learn about a different sport.

You can’t participate in new recreational activities if there’s no place to play.

If only I could learn how to skate properly, I’d be set.

Sean McIntosh is an Advocate reporter.

A scene from Bard on Bower’s past production of Antony and Cleopatra.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 26 As well, two free “pocked-sized” Bard in a Box productions of A Midsummer Night’s Dream and The Comedy of Errors will tour various parks in the city from July 1 to Aug. 11.

Schedules will be posted at www. primestocktheatre.com.

The Scottish play-that-must-notbe-named — or risk bad luck, ac-

cording to theatrical lore — is one of Shakespeare’s most performed plays.

Prime Stock Theatre’s artistic director, Thomas Usher, said Macbeth continually ranks near the top in audience requests.

And why wouldn’t it?

Familiar to generations of students who have studied the Elizabethan tragedy as part of their English curriculum, Macbeth also has all the elements for a spine-chilling story —

Best of Red Deer

including a brush with the supernatural.

It opens with Scottish general Macbeth receiving a prophecy from a trio of witches that one day, he will be king of Scotland.

Driven by his ambition and his wife’s urging, Macbeth murders King Duncan and seizes the Scottish throne. But his conscience is plagued by guilt — especially as more murders must be committed to cement his power.

The bloodbath that ensues pushes Macbeth and Lady Macbeth over the precipice of madness and death.

While Shakespeare’s play was first performed in 1606, Prime Stock Theatre will be establishing an earlier setting for the tragedy that’s supposed to take place in the 11th century.

Dealing with human traits such as ruthlessness and ambition and the psychic toll these can take, make Macbeth’s themes current, said Usher.

“Macbeth is haunted by the choices he makes.”

Victoria Wells-Smith, a former Prime Stock player, is flying in from Toronto to direct the play.

The title role is performed by former Red Deer College student Layne Zazalak — while Usher will play McDuff.

After all the gloom of Macbeth, The Tempest will seem positively breezy

— although it deals with both tragic and comic themes.

It starts with a turbulent storm at sea that causes some nobles to wash up on a remote island. They discover the sorcerer Prospero, his daughter Miranda, and his two servants — the “monster” Caliban, and Ariel, an airy spirit.

These colourful characters have helped audiences explore themes of magic, betrayal, revenge and family for more than four centuries.

This Bard on Bower’s production will be directed by Benjamin Blyth.

The English native is a founder of The Malachites‚ a company that strives to reconnect with the Elizabethan spirit of Shakespeare’s plays, while emphasizing their modern qualities.

For the first time this summer, Bard on Bower will partner with staff at Cronquist House, who will be making picnic meals for any audience members who pre-order them.

Usher also plans to book musicians to provide additional entertainment on the outdoor stage at Bower Ponds on various dates.

Whether you catch the two fullscale outdoor plays at Bower Ponds, or one of the 45-minute Bard in a Box productions touring various city parks, Usher said Prime Stock theatre will be glad to add some cultural seasoning to your summer.

To really know a community, you have to live in it

BY BRUCE SCHOLLIE SPECIAL TO THE ADVOCATE

I

t’s difficult to really get to know a city until you have lived in it.

Most people have a positive first impression of Red Deer. But what is it like to actually live here? Even better!

Here are a few of Red Deer’s less obvious characteristics that made the community an amazing place for me to live for the past 20 years.

A first impression might be that we have beautiful public spaces like parks, spray parks, playgrounds, trails, the river valley, green spaces, and great recreational use areas.

When you live here, you notice the pride and care that city crews take in maintaining and improving them all year round.

Grass is mowed, snow is cleared, trail cracks are fixed promptly, flowers are planted, equipment is fixed, debris is removed quickly, and garbage is collected frequently. You won’t see dilapidated equipment and crumbling trails. You will see the opposite – proudly maintained and frequently improved public spaces.

The same pride shows in the city’s

and prompt in addressing concerns – sometimes with follow up service in the same day. We all take this for granted until we travel to another town or city and see the difference.

For a city our size, the choice and quality of schools is second to none. We have public schools, Catholic schools, French and Spanish immersion schools, and francophone schools.

Our schools have excellent programs ranging from fine arts to auto body, and chemistry to cosmetology.

Students from Red Deer compete successfully on the world stage. Most importantly, our teachers are extremely dedicated, caring and qualified to foster every child’s success. In their eyes, every student matters.

Everyone thinks the city is a “nice” size, but what does that mean? For me, it means less time in the car commuting to work, taking kids to school, sports and activities, shopping, errands and appointments.

Most things are a 10- to 15-minute drive, or in many cases, a short bike ride or walk on our wonderful sidewalks and trails.

In a large city, it isn’t uncommon to commute one hour each way to work – that’s about 40 hours per month for a five-day work week.

In Red Deer, your time commuting will be about one-quarter of that. Less time travelling is more time to enjoy doing the things that matter to you and your family.

Part of why we spend less time commuting is that we have very wellplanned neighbourhoods that have amenities such as schools, recreation facilities, commercial areas, doctors and restaurants.

The planning also puts a priority on green spaces like parks, play grounds, ponds and trails.

Particularly along the river valley, at Heritage Ranch and Bower Ponds, you can escape into the wilderness for a walk, run or bike ride.

Or, you can enjoy the Red Deer River on a tube or just sit on a bench near the banks watching birds and other wildlife.

When you live here, the other thing you’ll notice is that Red Deer is full of big-hearted, community-minded, entrepreneurial, can-do people who are not afraid to work together for a common purpose.

From the ones who lead our efforts to host major events, right down to the faithful “Tuesday night volunteer,” our people are great.

Choosing to attend RDC was best decision of my life

BY BRITTANY LAUSEN SPECIAL TO THE ADVOCATE

I

have been a student at Red Deer College for the past five years, and it could be argued that those five years have been the most exciting in Red Deer College history.

During my time here, the college hosted the 2019 Canada Winter Games and the CCAA Men’s Volleyball National Championship, opened the Gary W. Harris Canada Games Centre, the Alternative Energy Lab, the first of four new residences and received university status after asking for 30 years.

We are on the road to becoming Red Deer University. To say the least, Red Deer College has been busy.

I am so grateful to be a student and be a part of the college community during such an exciting time. Red Deer College has given me many opportunities to grow personally and professionally.

Joel Ward, the president and CEO, often says, “Our institution will continue to measure our success by who we let in, not who we keep out.”

This institutional vision is important, because without it, students like myself would not have learning op-

school feeling discouraged and lost.

Thankfully, Red Deer College was my first stop.

After a few years of hard work, I had the honour of being awarded the 2018 Red Deer College Foundation outstanding student scholarship and the 2018 Students’ Association of Red Deer College student of the year award.

For someone who thought I had very few options available to me, I am grateful Red Deer College has given me a place to grow and allowed me to become the person I always knew I could be.

I am excited for the future of this institution as we continue to shape our identity as a university.

I am excited for the continuance and enhancement of languages, as well as the launch of two new degrees, bachelor of education and bachelor of business administration.

From our business students to our apprenticeship students, Red Deer College is able to produce some of the most qualified and sought-after graduates in the province, and we will only continue to get stronger.

Another important reason why Red Deer College should be everyone’s No. 1 choice of a post-secondary institution is our commitment to green initiatives. The college has 4,200 solar panels installed, making it the largest post-secondary solar array in Canada. This commitment to going green shows the college is serious about being a leader in the province and across the country.

Another key component to Red Deer College’s success as an institution is the students. The Students’ Association of Red Deer College represents these students at institutional, municipal and provincial levels.

The students’ association’s donation of half a million dollars to the Gary W. Harris Canada Games Centre shows past and present students’ investment in the future of Red Deer College.

I have been honoured to be a part of the association for the past two years, first as a councillor, then as vice-president of community and wellness, and now as president.

I encourage students to take advantage of the opportunities at Red Deer College, get involved in committees, join council, ask questions and be curious.

Involvement and investment in our school will not only serve you today, but later in life. Choosing to attend Red Deer College has been the best decision of my life and choosing to get involved in my campus community is a close second.

I am so fortunate to have been a witness to the past five years of Red Deer College history. I have a feeling that the next five years will be just as exciting.

Brittany Lausen is the president of the Students’ Association of Red Deer College.

Winter or summer, Bower Ponds is fun in all seasons O

ne of the city’s main attractions, Bower Ponds offers a space the whole family can enjoy. Its beautiful trails connect attractions along the Red Deer River, like Heritage Ranch, Mckenzie Trails and Three Mile Bend.

Besides the fun paddle boat rides and ice skating, Bower Ponds has some beautiful wildlife people can enjoy on their leisurely stroll, along with a playground for the kids to run around.

Situated on Bower Ponds is the historically significant Cronquist House, the home of Emmanuel Petterson Cronquist and his family, who came to Alberta with the first wave of Swedish immigrants back in 1893.

The pet-friendly park also has a pavilion with a small, rustic fireside room to escape from the cold in those winter months. Or, you can play some board games with your friends in the cafe.

Plans for Canada Day? Bower Ponds has you covered with their annual celebration on the ampitheatre stage, along with other events that are hosted there, such as Shakespeare in the Park.
