Caterpillars with new models is more money and we have found John Deere to require less servicing." Councillor Glen Nelson and councillor Doug Lyseng said they have to take into
consideration what machines the operators prefer. "They operate Caterpillars now, but unless they have run a John Deere, they have nothing to compare it to," Graham said. Continued on page 5

The CAMROSE BOOSTER, October 8, 2013 – Page 4
Forum provides chance to meet candidates By Dan Jensen
Candidates for the positions of Camrose mayor, Camrose City Council, Camrose County Council, Battle River School Division trustee and Elk Island School Division trustee had the chance to introduce themselves to voters in a Camrose Chamber of Commerce election forum Oct. 2. The candidates were each given two minutes to speak. Doug Appleby, Wayne Throndson and Greg Wood were unable to attend.
Mayor
Russell Hawkins
Norm Mayer
Mike Morris
Russell Hawkins said he is running on the platform of fiscal responsibility with a social conscience. "I basically think the City can grow and that we can make sound financial decisions, and that we don't have to do it at the expense of low income earners. If businesses do well so will their employees. If we can attract more businesses everyone benefits." Hawkins said he realizes as mayor he would only be one voice. "I would have to listen to eight other voices, facilitate and aggregate, bring all that together, then present that as the voice of the City. I believe that is demo-
cratic process. If everyone wanted to know what my opinion was we would have an autocracy and I would be the only one." Hawkins said if he is elected he would do the job full time. "I will have no other job. My motto is I strive for perfection but I seldom achieve it, but if you shoot for mediocre where do you wind up?" Norm Mayer said he has been in business in Camrose since 1963 and has a passion for the community. "I have served on council before and I have decided to let my name stand for election again based on some of
the concerns I have as far as service to the public is concerned and how we proceed in the future." Mayer said he would welcome the opportunity to work with other councillors who are an elected group to try come forward with solutions that are best for the community. "I have some experience in that area and I think we ran a reasonably good operation before. I would be pleased to have the opportunity to do that again." Mike Morris said he has been a resident of Camrose for 37 years. "I am serious about this opportunity. Let's move forward."
City/County Council Gordon Berg described himself as a former parks and recreation director, insurance representative and community volunteer who supports the Camrose police department, fire department, City Hall, Camrose performing arts centre and small business. "I don't like paying taxes any more than you do but I do like my quality of life thanks to those taxes." Berg said he would like to revisit the public transportation plan. Phil Hall said he would bring a businessman's approach to the new City council. "My involvement will be that of listening to the issues and taking a common sense approach. If we can't make (an issue) pen and paper then you would have to vote no in my opinion." Hall said he is a straightforward guy who is a good listener. Janet Hatch said her background in municipal planning makes her a good candidate for the position of councillor. "I hope my skills in planning and my skills as a mother can help bring the community together. I will represent a demographic that I think is needed on council." Hatch said she has volunteered with many community organizations, including the Family Resource Centre, AboutTime productions, Camrose Minor Hockey and Camrose Minor Soccer.
"I look forward to those times and sharing with the community." Tony Hladun said he has the corporate and project management experience that is needed to ensure council makes good decisions. "I have the time to devote to understanding the issues and dealing with them. Secondly, I have the desire to make the right decisions. Hladun said council needs to set the tone for good management and focus on appropriate growth. "I think appropriate growth is an area we need to focus on. That is growth that will allow us to sustain and build the facilities and services we need for the city." Garth Horton said he is a strong supporter of the Camrose business community. "Without the business community hockey teams wouldn't be able to function. They (businesses) contribute an awful lot." Horton said he first became involved in the city developing youth programs like the Boys and Girls Club and Learning Together. "I think I have had a huge impact on some of the community organizations in which I have been involved. Youth is the lifeblood of this community." Agnes Hoveland said she wants to see the pockets of excellent that already exist in Camrose in the arts, health care, business and education flourish and grow. Continued on page 22
Battle River School Division and Elk Island School Division BRSD
Norm Erickson said that as someone who was born and raised in Killam he knows how important it is to communities to retain their school. Erickson said he loved his 34 years in the teaching profession. "I loved the students. I spent a lot of time coaching and doing extra things with them. Erickson said he decided to run for school board because he saw a slight erosion in public education. "I feel that public education is big and that we hang onto the wide spectrum of programs in Battle River." Lorrie Sitler said she has two children who have just finished their public schooling and has spent 16 years advocating for a son with special needs. "I have a strong passion for lifelong learning and getting our students ready for the real world."
Norm Erickson
Lorrie Sitler
Cheryl Smith
Sitler said school trustees need to be able to make a difference. "We are the voice of the people and it takes all types of people to make sure that our kids have a great education. We live in a great province and this is one of the best places to raise a family. I want to help us get there and help us get past the damage of the last few years." Cheryl Smith said she
has given 110 per cent as an advocate for children and youth during her time as BRSD trustee and as vice president of the Alberta School Boards Association. "I have advocated on behalf of hundreds of kids: bullied and excluded kids, kids with mental health issues, homeless kids and those who fall through the cracks in spite of our best efforts. I have advocated
for academically gifted students, immersion students, autistic kids, those interested in the trades, those who don't know what direction to go." Smith said it is her belief that we need to have an unrelenting focus on success for all students. "Opportunities abound in Alberta. In a conversation a week or so ago I was asked if I believe our system is doing a better job of reach-
ing more students than say ten years ago. My answer to that is yes." Smith said her top priority is repairing connections. "I am open to looking at all points of view." Elk Island School Division Luisa Davidse she said she is running as Elk Island trustee so she can continue with the initiatives that have been planned for the future. "I am proud of what I have accomplished on behalf of Camrose and the greater school community. As I have maintained, when boards, employees and community work together, great things happen. Davidse said that one thing that is fundamental to Catholic Schools is faith. "We must continue with the vision of promoting Catholic values as part of educating the whole child."

Councillor Glen then asked which company was better to deal with in parts replacement. Administration indicated that with certain parts, Caterpillar can take a lot longer. "After discussion with Wetaskiwin County regarding the Volvo 960B they brought to our attention that their operators found they were unable to operate safely a number of blading operations. Wetaskiwin was then able to work with Strongco and replaced the 960B with the comparable antler rack configuration. In our operation we would be taking a step back by going to this configuration," Graham added. Councillors voted 4-2 in favour of going with the John Deere models.

The Camrose Booster thanks you for your interest in the letters page and encourages your comments. Socialized Grain It is interesting to note Horst Schreiber’s latest attempt (Oct.1) to speak in favor of universally enforced socialism, especially for Western wheat. Not only does he want to sell his grain collectively with other farmers (an ability he now has with the revised Canadian Wheat Board), he wants it that all farmers have no alternative but to do so. The tyranny of a "You can sell to no one else" regime, that they be forced
to participate in and pay for the government sponsored bureaucracy, which in fact was the only remaining big government seller of wheat in the entire world. The issue never was whether other crops could or could not be freely sold, nor whether one "hated the CWB," but whether for particular commodities one was forced to sell only to them. He claims in response to me "his facts are incorrect" without quoting even one such fact, only his thoughts "trotted out" which he falsely attributes to me. In speaking of presentday changes to the CWB, Schreiber says "non-farmers forced farmers to sell their grain a certain way." He has it backwards; a Conservative government sympathetic to the plight of Western farmers gave them marketing freedom not to be forced to sell a certain way, the sort of freedom he even seemed to relish for all society in his original attack on the celebrations of it’s first year.
Sorry Horst, to suggest the Conservatives do not have a mandate to do what they are doing is false. It is also anti-democratic. Democracy is what it actually is, rather than your imagining. You say:"...not a mandate to shove their ideology down our throats." You may prefer such inflammatory rhetoric, but the simple fact is they got a very definite mandate to enact their promises. That is how democracy works, the party with the majority of supporters in Parliament governs, i.e., introduces and gets passed their legislation. Regardless of what their ideology might be, and they all have ideas about how best to govern. We the people, who you refer to, have made our choice. Your assumption that it is this mandate I referred to when I originally pointed out the falsity of your claim that "farmers never got to vote on whether they wanted this ‘freedom’" is mistaken. Seems you chose to
interpret it that way so you could attack the Conservative government. Anyway, I claimed farmers had at least one vote "on the matter," and in actual fact they mailed in ballots on at least two occasions. These farmer only (not general election) votes were discussed in Booster letters years ago. So Horst, go ahead, sell to the Wheat Board. Only you and your ilk no longer get to force others to do so. Douglas Hendrickson Bittern Lake Plenty of volunteers Thank you for publishing a picture from the Camrose United Church pie event (Oct. 1, page 37). The caption leaves the impression that I might have done it all, so I want to thank the more than 30 United Church women who baked pies, prepared the sale, served coffee, tea, and pies, and cleaned up.

Muzzling Scientists: Good for Canada?
Don’t miss it!
If you Google the phrase “Canadian government muzzles scientists” you will be impressed and perhaps outraged. What is striking Is not only the sheer number of hits, but the range of news organizations that have reported conservative government attempts to restrict, or prevent outright, federally employed scientists, discussing their findings with media and the public. Topics include Fraser River salmon populations, ozone layer depletions in the Canadian Arctic, climate change, potential pollution from processing Alberta’s oil sands including rates of toxic chemicals found downstream from the oil sands, weather patterns in general, and evidence bearing on best practices in the health care sector. Appalled by what I learned, I decided to ask the conservative Crowfoot MP to explain this position of the government. Here is the key section of my letter: “I am writing ask you to provide me with the rationale behind the Conservative government’s position that censoring scientists, and withholding findings and data obtained by publicly funded scientists is in the best interests of Canadians. Personally, I can’t see how this produces an informed public that is able to debate these topics as extensively as they need to be.” I also
Second Thought
Tim Parker, Psychology, Augustana Campus, University of Alberta
mentioned, somewhat ironically, that I would consider his responses as public record. His reply did not mention my letter, but he did inform me that he had voted against an NDP motion on March 20, 2013 which included the following: “That, in the opinion of the House: (a) public science, basic research and the free and open exchange of scientific information are essential to evidence-based policy-making; (b) federal government scientists must be enabled to discuss openly their findings with their colleagues and the public;”. Clearly, it was part B that the government found
so odious and threatening. In defending his No vote, that is, to limit the freedom of scientists to publish their findings, our MP suggested that I carefully read the response to the motion issued by the Minister of Science and Technology which he attached to his communication. I took him at his word (send me an email at twparker@ualberta.ca if you’d like me to send it to you). In his response the Minister stated that "research findings must be effectively communicated and shared with Canadians". The NDP motion includes the phrase "free and open exchanges of scientific information are essential to evidence-based policy-making". Given this, I asked our MP what he saw as the difference between these phrases. What would prompt him to vote no, given that his minister’s response includes this phrase? I also mentioned that the minister’s listing of the numbers of peer-reviewed articles published by various federal organizations was irrelevant to the motion, because it does not address articles that should have been written but were suppressed. I also mentioned that I found it interesting that some MP’s have taken these to be credible and relevant arguments. I also asked why, given the volume and frequency of arti-
cles about scientists being censored, the government would not be taking steps to defuse this whole issue. Why not demonstrate that any government scientist can talk in public and to the media about their findings? As it stands, the perception that Canada's scientists are being muzzled is doing major harm to the government, and more importantly, to our international reputation. The first sentences of our MP’s response to this were “First of all, I reject the premise that our government is muzzling scientists. Therefore I voted no to the motion…” Such a response is troublesome for a number of reasons. First, there is a logical inconsistency in claiming there is no problem and then voting against a motion that is consistent with the government’s claimed position. Second, there is much evidence that the government is muzzling scientists. Finally, even if the government is not muzzling scientists, it cannot deny the perception that it is doing so. There is nothing in the MP’s reply that addresses these problems. If this issue has you as outraged as I am, I encourage you to contact your MP and request a cogent, reasoned defence of the federal government’s active suppression of the communication of scientific findings. So far, I haven’t seen one.

ATB Financial celebrates 75th anniversary By Murray Green
The Camrose branch of ATB Financial joined with the other 170 branches to celebrate the 75th anniversary of banking in the province. "Our first branch opened 75 years ago almost to the day in Rocky Mountain House. Throughout the 75 years we have made it our commitment to put people first by offering the very best customer service and expertise. And now, 75 years later, we have grown into the province’s largest Albertabased financial institution. Today, we help over 635,000 Albertans through our network of 171 branches, 130 agencies and our Customer Care Centre. For this we are truly grateful to you our customers," said Stacey Lecomte, customer service manager in Camrose. "Today simultaneously in 301 ATB communities, we are proud to announce that community investments totaling over $236,000 are being distributed in celebration of our anniversary," she added. "I’m also happy to announce that in our community, the local branch is pleased to support the Camrose Boys and Girls Club and Centra Cam with a gift of $500 each." In addition as a symbolic gesture of appreciation to everyone in Camrose, the branch will be planting a special threefoot blue spruce tree, in cooperation with Sparling School. "This tree not only represents ATB’s deep community roots, but also our hope for the continued growth and prosperity in Camrose," said Stacey. The branch offered customers and the community 75 spruce seedlings to give away to guests to mark the occasion. "We hope that you will plant your tree in a place that reflects your own roots in Alberta," said Stacey. Vernon Roth, a customer with ATB Financial for the past 75 years, helped cut the anniversary cake at the local branch. Camrose branch of ATB Financial customer service manager Stacey Lecomte, 75-year client Vernon Roth and ATB relations manager Don Lyons cut a cake to celebrate the businesses' long service in the province and in the community. Camrose Boys and Girls Club executive director Rees James, left, and Centra Cam executive director Roxanna Skjonsberg, right, each accept $500 from Camrose branch of ATB Financial customer service manager Stacey Lecomte during the 75th anniversary on Sept. 27.
Students set up business to prepare for future By Murray Green
Two Our Lady Mount Pleasant School Grade 11 students are showing extra entrepreneurial spirit. Kahnen Dunnigan and Nathan Nobert started their own graphic design business called FuriousEdits. The business specializes in creating logos, vinyl decals, stickers, apparel printing and custom art. "The ideal started in Com Tech class and we decided to do some work on it outside of school to turn it into a business," said Nathan. "We started the class last year and it carried over to this year," added Kahnen. "We saw this as something we could do at home in our spare time. We purchased some programs to allow us to get started. We talked to our parents (all experienced business people in Camrose) and Nathan's mom jump started us by buying us equipment. In exchange we agreed to create some vinyl decals for her business." The partners purchased the programs and a cutter to launch the business with their first customer secured. "We started April 1 with a business name. We didn't do a lot at first because we needed the cutter. We did a lot of planning in May and June. Things really picked up in July with the cutter and school was out.
Kahnen Dunnigan, left, and Nathan Nobert create some graphic designs for customers.
"We marketed to our families and friends first," said Nathan. "Our Tweeter base ran from 1,000 to 3,200 followers in a few months; we are getting more jobs and our website is built and we are getting more expansions." The students had a busy summer. "Even though we were busy with other activities, we still made time for the business. It slowed down, but we kept at it and we were up to full force by the time September came," said Kahnen. "This is something we see as a career path in the future." The students spend the third block of the school day taking work experience. How-
ever, they are working for themselves, while they are receiving credits. "In addition, we spend an hour or so a day at it. Some days it can be six depending on what we have to do," said Nathan. "We are busy enough to keep us going. We also want to put up examples of our work, so people can see what we can do." The business is already expanding. "We are hoping to add a t-shirt press next month to start printing various things on the shirts," added Nathan. "This business gives us life skills that we can apply in the future. Things like managing your day, Microsoft
programs, money and improving your marketing skills all help. I gained a lot of respect for business owners by starting the business. It isn't easy." The students saw a need and ran with it. "We saw a lot of potential in providing vinyl decals and the same with the t-shirts," added Kahnen. "Our goal is to be able to support ourselves as we go to university or college." Businesses are important to the local community. "A business can support a family and a group of people and they become very important with employment," added Kahnen. The OLMP students were
chosen as one of 10 startup businesses in Alberta to compete for a $3,000 prize, sponsored by Rural Alberta Business Link. The contest is judged upon about a 20-page business plan and sales pitch. The entries are usually limited to students 18 and older. However, because of the strength of their application, Nathan and Kahnen were also included in the contest. "They have taught us about marketing and how to built a business plan. We learn how to plan for the future, so that when we expand we have a guideline to follow," added Kahnen. "It also shows how important research is when we are pricing out supplies and finding out what competitors charge," continued Nathan. "We have the advantage because we are not depending on an hourly wage to make money. We want to offer a service that helps people," said Kahnen. Nathan plans to attend the University of Alberta in computer science, specializing in fine arts. Kahnen is keeping an open mind about his future right now. "They are a great example and inspiration for their peers," said Jaymie Reinhart, OLMP off campus education coordinator.

Pat Twomey and John Howard are stepping down from serving on the St. Mary's Hospital Community Board. Both civic-minded members of the board were honoured on Oct. 1 for their work over the years. Pat was appointed to the board in 2007 and served six years and John started in 2009 and served four years. "On behalf of the community board and foundation, I want to thank Pat for dedication, not only to the board, but to the community in general. I'm proud to know you and privileged to work with you," said Alan Heyhurst, foundation chair. "St. Mary's is very vital to our community and I was proud to serve on the foundation board. It was like a dream to build the chapel and be a part of this establishment," said Pat. "I want to wish everyone good luck and keep up the good work." Both retirees spent a lot of time making the chapel a reality. "John was the founding president of the new community board and during your tenure you were the driving force behind building a chapel," Alan said to John and the board. "While you were at the helm we had the chapel built. It was your pushing and tenacity, and everyone's tenacity, to get it built. It will be a legacy to St. Mary's and your legacy too. Your commitment to St. Mary's and your huge commitment in the community makes it a pleasure to know and work with you. I thank you very much for your service and dedication." "I would echo Pat's comments," said John. "My thanks to everyone, especially Cherylyn (Antymniuk, executive director). For me, St. Mary's Hospital has been part of my history ever since I came to Camrose, mainly because I was a patient first. When the opportunity came up to serve, in another way than occupying a bed, I thought it was a good idea to try that. It certainly was a great experience."

IN GOOD SPIRITS Camrose girl Justice Wollman remains in good spirits after chemotherapy treatments in Edmonton last month.
Local wrestling promoter Jack Daniels wants Camrose to join him in helping a Sifton School student battle cancer. A special benefit live professional wrestling night will be held at the Camrose Fieldhouse to raise funds for Justice Wollman, an eightyear-old girl, who was diagnosed with brain cancer in late August. "She complained about having headaches, so the parents took her to the doctor," said Jack, promoter of the event. "She was sent to the Stollery Children's Hospital and they did a MRI on her. That is when they found the tumour." The RockStar Entertainment Group and Wrestling Federation will be donating Justice's share of the amount to her trust fund and also to help the Kids with Cancer Society with the Fight For Justice wrestling card on Oct. 20.
"Justice was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumour the size of a walnut," explained Jack. She undergoing chemotherapy immediately and does so every couple of weeks. Justice remains with a positive outlook on life. I work with her grandfather and that is how I first heard about her." However, the family will be travelling to Florida in January for a special type of radiation therapy that is not yet available in Canada. "All of the costs for her and one parent are covered for the trip to Florida," said Jack. "Only the dad is working because Justice has two younger siblings." Jack reported that the doctors are optimistic that they can shrink the tumour. "The treatment procedure is covered by Alberta health care, but the additional family members' costs are not," added Jack. "We want to
help the family out as much as we can." Justice, daughter of April and Justin Wollman, is currently in Grade 4. "She is very excited about school and attends as often as she can. We hope her friends from school can attend and make signs for both her and the wrestlers," said Jack. "We want her to forget about cancer for one day and enjoy the show." The wrestling night will feature Nikolai Volkoff, Harry Smith (the son of legend British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith), Jason the Terrible and midget wrestler Short Sleeve Sampson, who is on his farewell tour. About 20 wrestlers will be in several matches. A huge tag team event is also in the plans. The doors open on Oct. 20 at 6 p.m. and the bell rings at 7 p.m. Tickets are available by calling 780-281-5078, or at a higher price at the door. Donations are also welcome.

Ducks Unlimited agrees to help with road repairs By Murray Green
Ducks Unlimited Canada representative Shaun Tomilin was welcomed to the Camrose County meeting with open arms on Sept. 24. The wildlife protection agency came seeking permission and approval to proceed with road upgrades to the Lyseng Reservoir about 10 miles north of Camrose. Lyseng Reservoir was originally built in the early 1950s as a water supply for the City of Camrose. It was then purchased by Imperial Oil (Esso) as a water source for oil extraction in the area. In the early 1990s, Esso donated the reservoir to Ducks Unlimited Canada. They have been operating the reservoir at a lower level for wildlife habitat since that time. "The existing pump house was designed for higher water levels and is nearing, actually past, the end of its service life," reported Shaun. "Ducks Unlimited is therefore proposing a change to the management plan

want to build up the road in two locations and build a berm to avoid flooding to the acreage," said Shaun. "We plan to do the work next year." The County road that will be impacted (Range Road 204) will be upgraded with a culvert to meet Alber-

ta Transportation and flood standards. In order to prevent f looding to the one impacted farmstead/acreage, Ducks Unlimited has already agreed to build a berm for added protection. "The barn has been wet a few times, but the house
has been kept dry for the most part," said Shaun. "It might have been flooded in the 70s." Councillor Trevor Miller made a motion to give the County's permission for Ducks Unlimited Canada to proceed with the road upgrades.

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Camrose Police Service dog handler Const. Matt Rolfe and dually trained German
Shepherd Mishka placed second in a national drug detection competition held by the Canadian Police Canine Association. The officer and dog team came in second out of 39 entries across Canada and the northern United States.
Police dog placed second in Canadian detection event By Murray Green The Camrose Police Service has the second best K-9 unit in the country. Dog handler Const. Matt Rolfe and German Shepherd Mishka placed second in a national competition recently. "Every year the Canadian Police Canine Association hosts a national championship for all active members within that organization," explained Const. Rolfe. "That ranges from police officers from across the country to into the northern United States. It includes correction services and border services as well." This year the event was held Sept. 19 to 22 in Saanich, B.C. "We had 39 teams of competitors. This is the third year we attended. We entered the drug detection and explosives category," he added. "We finished second overall and the highest a patrol team has ever placed before. We have a dual-purpose dog trained for street work and detection. She has been cross trained. Most dogs entered specialize in one field. I was also one of only a few who is on regular duty as well as with canine duties. I have a regular shift of duty, rather than devote my entire time to police dog work." Mishka and her trainer, Const. Rolfe, came in fifth last year and both really improved their scores to give the champion a run. "The winning dog and trainer were the two-time defending champions and are a tough team to beat. The trainer praised us for improving a lot because he didn't think we were much of a threat before the competition," said Const. Rolfe. "Out of 380 points, we were only short by 12 points. We were very close to beating what is now a three-time championship team." The local team also competed in tracking and bit-
ing events and placed in the middle of the pack. "Teams were drawn and I had a bad placing. There were some environmental factors, which affected the overall score for us in that. Other teams had difficulty with the event too," stated Const. Rolfe. "Other agencies, such as the Calgary Police Service, will have inhouse competitions and send their best unit. We don't have that luxury. I have to compete against the best units across Canada. To be able to come in second in drug detection is a huge feather in our cap." Three years of hard work for both the dog and trainer have paid off. "It is very rewarding. You strive to be the best and we are recognized by other services for having a good team. As a team we are progressing and improving. We train throughout the year and this is a gauge for us. The judges were blown away at how close a duel purpose dog could come that close to a national champion," said Const. Rolfe. "It may change some thinking that dualpurpose dogs can compete and be a good service dog in smaller centres. It is possible because the barrier has been broken. People ask me how I train and what we can do to compete at that level as part time handlers. I'm up against full time handlers." Const. Rolfe said the event is a learning opportunity for everyone. "At the end of the day, we share all of our secrets, with other dog handlers, so there are no secrets. We are all striving to get better. Our main goal is to get bad guys off the street and we are all in this together." Mishka is six and a half years old and just starting to hit her prime as a police dog. Const. Rolfe has trained her for about four years. Both received training in Calgary and outperformed some of the people and dogs with which they trained.

Student numbers are strong …in BRSD The numbers are going up! The most recent enrollment count in Battle River School Division shows a very positive trend toward growth. Here in the City of Camrose, growth is particularly strong at the elementary school level, with a higher than expected number of students entering Kindergarten and Grade 1. Even at the junior and senior high level, where spring estimates predicted there would be a drop due to the lower number of 11 to 18-year-olds living in Camrose, the actual September numbers show a junior and senior high enrollment picture that is within a dozen students of last year. “We’re very excited to see our numbers leveling off,” says Superintendent of Schools Dr. Larry Payne. “Decreasing populations in rural Alberta have caused real staffing and funding challenges for us in recent years. Even right here in Camrose, where there’s been a lower number of teenagers, we’ve had to make difficult decisions. “Now that we’re through the worst of those
declines our school division can move forward with little disruption to classrooms and keep our focus on student success.” “There are definite signs of change, as more young families are deciding to call Camrose home. This is great news for our schools and for the city.”
Council adopts new winter road maintenance policy By Dan Jensen
City council adopted a new winter road maintenance policy at its Sept. 16 meeting that strengthens the role of the airport manager or his delegate as the sole decision maker for when snow clearing operations will be scheduled at the Camrose airport. The policy also confirms the potential use of contracted services to assist in airport snow clearing operations and adds verbage to clarify that administration is permitted to develop site specific operations plans for the airport to work out the details of how snow clearing at the airport will be implemented. Overriding principles that will guide snow clearing decisions include maximum snow accumulations on the runway (three inches or less), length of time that lesser accumulations exist on the runway, and specific conditions which may pose an immediate safety hazard to pilots (moisture content, density of snow, whether ice is present). "Snow clearing at the airport is completed as soon as can be reasonably accommodated after the weather clears and is completed
either by City forces or by contract if the City forces are not available," states the policy. "If neither City forces nor contracted services are available to clear the runway in a reasonable length of time, the airport manager or his delegate may close the airport until such time as site conditions are safe once again. However, as prolonged closures at the airport are not desirable, the airport manager or his delegate will investigate all practical means to see to the clearing of the runway and the reopening of the airport." The Camrose airport was rendered unusable for a period of time during the first part of March of this year after the accumulation of snow on the runways reached more than three inches. "As a result of the snow on the runway there was a loss of business to operators on the airport," said Camrose Airport Commission member Blain Fowler in a presentation to City council May 6. "The folks at Aerotechnical Services reported that movements in and out of their service facility were interrupted. Camrose Flight Service curtailed certain aircraft movements with the
result that machines that could have been rented out remained grounded for safety reasons." Camrose Airport Commission chair Steve Dammann told council that several parts of the City were cleared of snow after the March snowfalls despite requests from the Camrose airport manager that something be done and the fact that the Camrose airport is one of the top priorities for snow clearing. He urged the City to reduce the maximum allowable snow accumulation threshold to no greater than two inches and give the airport manager more say as to when the snow clearing crews are called out. "It is very important that the airport manager have the ability to say this is an unsafe condition," said Dammann. City assistant municipal engineer, infrastructure and planning, Jeremy Enarson, told council the changes address most of the specific concerns identified by airport users and by council. "There are no additional issues that have been identified by administration regarding the City's policy at this time."

Camrose Kodiaks explode for seven goals By Murray Green
The Camrose Kodiaks unleashed their offence against the unsuspecting Sherwood Park Crusaders on Oct. 2. Camrose broke out of a scoring slump with a 7-2 victory. It was the most goals the Kodiaks have scored this season in a game. The line of Tanner MacMaster, Connor Mailey and Ryker Leer provided most of the spark on offence as they clicked on several goals. "It felt good to break out like that. Before we were looking for goals and struggling to put the puck in the net," said game star Tanner. "Some guys were nervous coming into the league and gripping their sticks a little tight, but they are relaxing now and are able to put the puck into the net." Tanner had five assists in leading his teammates to the road victory. Camrose has won four away games and have nine of 10 possible points on the road. "Our line was playing well. I just tried to get pucks on net and my teammates where there for the rebounds. If it wasn't for my teammates scoring and playing well, I wouldn't be getting the points either," added Tanner. "We are starting to feel the chemistry and we are coming together as a line." Connor scored a goal and added three assists, while Ryker garnered two tallies. Defenceman Josh Smith stepped up for two goals and an assist in a supporting role. Ryan Huolt and Luc Vandale collected the other tallies. "We have to build on this. There are things we still have

to improve on, but we just have to go out there and play hard. We just need to relax and work hard. I think we will start scoring in bunches now," predicted Tanner. Camrose jumped to third in the south with two straight wins, including knocking off the northern second place Crusaders. "We have to win the important games, such as Okotoks, in order to move up into second and first place," said Tanner. Goalie Devin McDonald made 30 of 32 saves for the win. The Kodiaks were out shot 32-30, but they held the Crusaders' power play to one for 10 on the night. Camrose made the jump
from last place to third in a short time. "It was tough to see us in last. It wasn't like we weren't working hard. We just didn't get the breaks we needed," explained Tanner. "We just kept at it. If we continue to work hard, things will come for us. The bounces go our way and that happened last night (in Sherwood Park)." Camrose picked up a 4-2 win over the Bonnyville Pontiacs on Sept. 28 in Spruce Grove. The Kodiaks earned three of a possible four points at the Showcase Weekend. Tanner netted two power play goals in the second period to lead the offence. "It's nice to see the hard
work pay off, but we still have a lot of work ahead of us," he said. Nick Harder and Brett Njaa collected single markers to help on offence. Devin made 17 saves for the win as the Kodiaks blasted 32 shots at the Bonneyville net. The referees started the game with seven straight penalties for the Kodiaks. Then to even things up, the referees called seven on the Pontiacs, mostly in the second. That's when Tanner scored two power play markers. Tanner played well during the showcase and he was ranked by the National Hockey League Central Scouting system.
"It's nice, but I know that I have a lot of work ahead of me. I need to improve here and then at Boston College next year. I have to get bigger and stronger to play at the next level," Tanner said. "They suit my style with smaller and skilled guys." Camrose lost a tough 3-2 game against Drayton Valley in a shootout. Vandale and MacMaster supplied the goals. The next home game for the Kodiaks is on Oct. 10 when the Grande Prairie Storm rolls into the city. The Drumheller Dragons visit on Oct. 24. Both home games begin at 7 p.m.
Vikings ready to rally after getting off to a slow start By Murray Green
Andy Williams circled his calendar soon after switching his education from SAIT in Calgary to the University of Alberta, Augustana Campus in Camrose. The hockey goalie spent last year stopping pucks for the Trojans. This year he is proud to be a Viking. "It is certainly one game I don't need a lot of motivation for," joked Andy. "Games against SAIT are huge for the Vikings and it's two games and four points I want to see us win." The Viking host SAIT on Oct. 11, Friday night, and then head to Calgary for the rematch on Oct. 12 before Thanksgiving. Andy is thankful he made the switch to Augustana. "I'm having fun here, the program I'm taking is better and the whole experience has been more fun for me," said Andy. "The jelling and bonding as a team has been fun here. Our teammates are a lot closer to each other than they were at SAIT. Calgary is a lot bigger city, so it is hard to get everyone together

and meet up with guys. Here it has been good. We do a lot of team stuff together." Andy played well in his first regular season game in a Vikings' uniform. He only allowed one goal, but lost 1-0. "I can't view it negatively. I did my part to give us a
chance to win. Sometimes that is how it goes. We had our chances to score, but we had some unlucky bounces and hit some posts. It was one of those nights that things don't go our way," he said. "We worked hard all week and things should go
well for us (against Briercrest)." The team is focusing on scoring more goals. "We have been working on our systems and putting pucks on the net any way possible," Andy continued. "The more guys we have
going to the net non-stop gets the other goalie thinking and it gets in his head. Every once in a while you may get one that shouldn't have gone in. It can motivate your team and bring the other team down as well." The Red Deer Kings celebrated their return to the Alberta Colleges Athletic Association with 2-1 and 1-0 wins over their rival central Alberta squad in Camrose. "We may have taken them a little bit for granted. We have to get in a habit of always coming out hard. They are a brand new team and they wanted to prove themselves," Andy said. "You have to give them credit because they worked hard for 120 minutes and it worked out for them. The next time we play them it will be a lot different." The Vikings have to be focused on each game now. "We have to play with urgency and be smart at the same time," said Andy. "We don't need to panic it yet."

Hoveland said she has contributed to the community for over 40 years, primarily in the area of nursing. "My career spanned a very wide and a variety of clinical and professional roles. I retired in 2007 from nursing but I have contributed as a volunteer locally and provincially at many different levels. I look forward to being able to serve in a different capacity and I look forward to your vote." Kevin Hycha said he came to Camrose 26 years ago to start working at Camrose Truck Centre, which is part of the Glover International Group. "I left my family and friends and I moved up to Camrose to see what it was all about. My plan at that time was only to come up for one year and then move back. Well, one year went by and one thing led to another. I met a girl, started raising a family, and I am still here. What I am trying to get at is that Camrose has been very good to me, so I want to give back to the city. I am asking you to vote for me on Oct. 21 so I can do that." Max Lindstrand said he has had a lot of leadership experiences in his life, most prominently as principal of Camrose Composite High School for 21 years. "What kind of leader am I? I respect all people, I believe that morale is a key to the success of any organization, I am a team player, I am open minded and I want to listen to everyone's suggestions before I make up my mind." Lindstrand said if he is re-elected he would work with the mayor and new councillors in a collaborative manner. Lindstrand said he has learned a lot about the operations of the City. "I think I bring valuable experience to the table. I think it is important that our new council have members who have a good grasp of the issues that are brought to us by that experience." Pat Mader Mundel said she has served on many boards and working groups since the last election cycle and studied key documents that guide the City. "I have talked to business owners, builders, developers and local residents, a number of whom are here today. I am known as an energetic
and hardworking person who does her homework. Mader Mundel said the next council needs to support Camrose's continuing capacity as a regional magnet for shopping, convention and tourism destination. "Camrose is no longer the small centre that my family came to in the late 1970s. Along the way we have become a rural city with steady growth averaging two per cent over the last number of years. We remain the fastest growing municipality in east central Alberta and we must find a balance between competitive tax rates and providing the core services and amenities that will draw and keep residents here." Mader Mundel said the next council needs to follow through on recommendations in Camrose's economic development plan by pursuing programs that support business retention and expansion, creating a Camrose brand with wide appeal, and building more agricultural processing opportunities. McIsaac said he has experienced a number of highs and lows in his two terms on council. "One of the highlights for me has nothing to do with roads, water and sewer. Last December I had the pleasure to represent the City at the turning over of four Habitat for Humanity homes to four families with numerous children. If anyone wanted a real true experience it would have been worthwhile to have been there." McIsaac said as a member of council he would listen to concerns and work corroboratively with the mayor and his colleagues. "I like to think that I would be an advocate for good use of tax dollars. Focus on the overall community, not just a single issue within it." Sandra McLay described herself as someone who has been dedicated to giving back to the community as a volunteer since recovering from a stroke four years ago. "If it wasn't for the care I received in Camrose I wouldn't be standing here and talking to you today," she said. "Camrose actually saved my life." McLay has served on the Family Action Society, the Stroke Board and Family Action Society. "There are a lot of things that I have learned
from sitting on the boards," she said, "but I can still learn from being on council." Sara Zylka said she is a stay at home mom who has a lot of time to dedicate to council work. "I am very hard working and energetic and I am the executive administrator for the Camrose Skating Club, as well as the infamous Rusty Blades. I would love the opportunity to be the voice of families on City council." Joan Petruk said she is open minded and understands the important of listening to the people she represents. "I have been a member of numerous boards on the local, provincial and national level and have a good understanding of government policies and decision making processes. Petruk said she respects all team members and decisions that are made by the group. "When different members of the team have different opinions it usually indicates that they have different information. Bill Sears said he is not going to make promises he cannot keep (such as tax cuts), or second guess or criticize the wisdom of previous councils. "What I will promise is that I will use my almost 20 years working in local government to work for the betterment of the city of Camrose and all our residents." Sears said if Camrose is going to continue to grow we must plan for the needs of that growth. "We must be sure that growth fits in and supports the high quality of life that makes such a desirable place to live." Sears said we must recognize that there are different socioeconomic levels within the city and that all residents must be served. "Is that going to be easy? No. There are no easy answers. Listening to the people, sound decision making, long term planning, that is what we must do. That is what you expect and deserve." Valerie Sims, a retired school teacher, said Camrose needs to have strong businesses. "The ones that we have here are wonderful, and we need to support them. The more you support your community the better it is economically,
and that is just the way it is. We need to promote that." Sims said the new council needs to be responsible with its decision making. "I like to listen to all sides of an issue before making a decision and we need to do so-so we can have a strong community." Peter Stasko said is it his goal to help build a vibrant and beautiful community. "As a husband, new father and co-owner of a local business I have a vested interest in maintaining it in growing it for the future while optimizing our resources. I have diverse board experience so I know what can be accomplished by working together as a team." Dave Wolsey said he has enjoyed living in Camrose with his wife since moving here six and a half years ago. "This is our home and I love it. I see Camrose as a beautiful, vibrant city with lots of greenspace and amenities that we all love and enjoy. I see the wonderful historic down which we have and I want to see it maintained and kept that way. I see the Aquatic Centre as a place where my kids go swimming. I see the arena, they can go skate. I see these places and I love them, and I want to see them kept this way." Camrose County Kendal Severson, who will be taking on Don Gregorwich in Division 3, said he would like to see the County attract new industries that will supply jobs and bring more families to the small towns and villages. Severson said as a father of triplets he has the skill set to deal with the demands that councillors face. "We have been asked how we deal with three crying babies. We do a quick evaluation of the scene and deal with the one that can be settled the fastest and move on until all is quiet. Severson said as council representative he would make all decisions with careful thought while ensuring that the spending of tax dollars is done in the most efficient manner. "I believe my time on school board has prepared me to deal with the demands of being on County council."

1977 – 2011 The moment that you left us, Our hearts split in two, The one side filled with memories, The other side died with you. We often lay awake at night, When the world is fast asleep, And take a walk down memory lane, With tears upon our cheeks. Remembering you, Brenda, is easy, We do it every day, But missing you is a heartache, That never goes away. We hold you tightly within our hearts, And there you will remain, Life goes on without you, But will never be the same. Forever in our hearts, We love and miss you. – Dad, Mom and family

Time speeds on, two years are gone, Since death its gloomy shadow cast Upon our home, where all seemed bright And took from us a shining light. We miss that light, and ever will; His vacant place none can fill, Here we mourn, but not in vain, For in Heaven, we will meet again. Love, Pauline, Lawrence, Darryl, Cindy, Sadie and Britt
We will shelter her with tenderness We’ll love her while we may – And for the happiness we have known Forever grateful stay. But should the angels come for her Much sooner than we planned, We’ll brave the bitter grief that comes And try – to understand.”

Biathlon, ski training camp attracts athletes By Murray Green
The Camrose Ski Club attracted about 200 athletes, coaches and parents to the inter-provincial dryland training camp in Camrose Sept. 27 to 29.
Cross-country skiers and biathletes of all ages came to learn from guest coaches and get in shape for the upcoming season. "Cross-country Skiing Alberta named Camrose as
the northern training centre. We are the development centre for athletes from north of Red Deer," said Les Parsons of the ski club. Former Augustana and national athletes Kat Stone
and Melanie Schultz joined Zoe Roy and Alana Thomas as guest coaches at the camp that included three days of hard training. "We have the best trail system of any place between
Rocky Mountain House and Thunder Bay," said Les. "The multi-sport camp was for cross-country skiers, biathletes and cross-country runners. Continued on page 27

Mason and Smith debate at Augustana By Dan Jensen
Alberta NDP leader Brian Mason and Alberta Wildrose leader Danielle Smith squared off in the third in a series of debates over some of the province's most pressing issues at the Augustana chapel of the Faith and Life Centre Oct. 1. "It was a chance to explain to students the differences between our parties as well as get the voters to start thinking about what the future of the province looks like without the Progressive Conservatives," said Mason. They expressed entirely different views on the subject of health care. Wildrose wants to introduce a market based health care system where the money follows the patient and both private and public facilities are competing for business, while the NDP is strongly in favouring and strengthening the public health care system. The leaders also expressed different opinions on whether the government has a revenue or an expenditure problem. "I of course think it is an expenditure problem," said Smith. "Brian of course believes that we have to have more revenues." The leaders agreed for the most part that the province's resources should be developed in an environmentally responsible manner, but disagreed on how they should be exported. Mason has argued in the past that the export of unprocessed bitumin creates jobs in Texas and China whereas the Wildrose has expressed the need for a market based approach that allows the bitumin to be upgraded wherever the oil companies can find the best deal. Both Mason and Smith expressed strong views on the cuts to post secondary education. "We spent a lot of
Brian Mason and Danielle Smith
time discussing how those cuts are going to impact students and their education, as well as class sizes and programs," said Mason. The debate was hosted by the Augustana Politics Club. "The student association here heard about the debate series and they contacted us about coming out," said Mason. "That to me has been very encouraging." The debates evolved from one that was hosted by the University of Calgary economics undergraduate class last spring as a fundraiser. "They felt that a two party debate would be the most clean and interesting," said Mason. "We enjoyed it a lot and had fun." Smith said it has been wonderful to see the level of interest that students have in the debates. "I think part of what we are offering is something that is a little more in depth than normal politics. Question period is not really a good indicator of the political issues because you only have a few seconds to make
your point. In debates like this Brian and I are able to spend two hours really debating the issues in depth. We do have some areas of overlap but we also have some different ideas about what Alberta should look like in the future and the path that we take to get there." No reason for deficit Smith feels the province needs to come up with a better arrangement for sharing revenues with municipalities. "There was a good first step taken with the municipal sustainability initiative," she said, "but we need to make sure that funding remains steady, increasing and stable. I think the government started off with a good idea, but they ended up falling short of that in the last number of years and it has ended up leaving the municipalities in the lurch to not be able to have those dollars that they had relied on. I personally believe in local autonomy and local decision making, but to have that local autonomy the dollars have to flow through so they actually have the abil-
ity to make decisions at the local level." Smith also feels that it is important that the government get its capital spending under control. "There have been wild swings in capital spending from a high of $7 billion to a low of $1.5 billion. Stabilize that at a reasonable amount comparable to the other big provinces and develop a plan over a ten year period of time with a public prioritized list that allows you to meet all your infrastructure priorities without going into debt." Smith said the province needs more community based education. "Once a student leaves their home community to go to Edmonton or Calgary it is very hard to attract them back home again and that is one of the things that causes the hollowing out of some of our smaller communities. You need to keep the talent and the students here. The approach the government seems to be taking generally is that things should be centralized in the two major cities. I think that goes against the vision of Lougheed. The vision of Lougheed was that the way you keep robust vibrant rural economies is by having the supports there. You have good Kindergarten to 12 schools, you have good health care, good seniors' facilities. And increasingly, having good community colleges and universities is another advantage that smaller communities can offer when they are trying to attract rural residents. I personally believe that having a more decentralized service delivery is a model that has worked for Alberta in the past and will continue to work in the future, but you have to empower local decision makers to make those decisions in the best interests of their community."

Be aware of child abuse October is National Child Abuse Awareness Month – a time for all Albertans to learn about recognizing and reporting child abuse and neglect. Albertans have a role and shared responsibility, along with government, communities and families, in supporting the safety, security and well-being of children. Reports from the public are essential in helping to identify children and youth who are being abused. If Albertans suspect a child is being abused or neglected, they should call the Child Abuse Hotline at 1-800-387-KIDS (5437). They can also call 3100000 to connect with their local Child and Family Services Authority or Delegated First Nations Agency. “We need to put our children’s safety and well-being first and ensure they are being protected," said Sandra Jansen, associate minister of Family and Community Safety. "I encourage all Albertans – teachers, neighbours, family and community members to pick up the phone and share any concerns they may have about a child’s welfare.” What are some signs that a child may be neglected or abused? A child who is often hungry or not dressed for the weather. A child who is extremely withdrawn or usually aggressive. Unexplained bruises or injuries. A child who shows unusual knowledge of sexual matters beyond their age of development.

It’s our hope that people reading this article won’t have to learn the hard way. If we could give just one fire warning, we’d say, “Keep an eye on what you fry!” Why? Because cooking is the leading cause of home fires, according to the nonprofit National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). The latest statistics from NFPA say Fire Departments responded to an estimated annual average of 156,600 cooking-related fires between 2007-2011. We’re joining forces with NFPA and thousands of other fire departments across North America to commemorate Fire Prevention Week, October 6-12th, “Prevent Kitchen Fires.” The theme reminds us that leaving cooking unattended and other unsafe kitchen practices are a recipe for disaster. Often when we’re called to a cooking-related fire, the residents tell us they only left the kitchen for
When you are simmering, baking, or roasting food, check it regularly, stay in the home, and use a timer to remind you. Keep cooking areas clean and clear of combustibles (e.g. potholders, towels, rags, drapes and food packaging). Keep children away from cooking areas by enforcing a “kid-free zone” of three feet around the stove. If you have a fire in your microwave, turn it off immediately and keep the door closed. Never open the door until the fire is completely out. If in doubt, get out of the home and call the fire department. Always keep an oven mitt and a lid nearby. If a small grease fire starts in a pan, smother the flames by carefully sliding the lid over the pan (make sure you are wearing the oven mitt). Turn off the burner. Do not move the pan. To keep

some of the nicest in the province. "The only area I can see as needing improvement is the Camrose Aquatic Centre," he said. Stasko said his goal as a City councillor would be to help the City grow and move forward. Continued on page 32

Sitler believes she can provide leadership
Lefty says…
#6E ’D >@G6 7@CH2C5
Mike ‘Lefty’ Morris wants to be your Mayor. Here are a few ideas Mike has about the future of Camrose… A city’s mayor should be its best ambassador. After 37 years in the hospitality industry I have met and greeted and made feel welcome captains of industry, musicians, leaders in their fields, moms and toddlers, university deans, construction workers, athletes, people from all walks of life. And, they kept coming back, helping to keep my businesses going strong. You can only assume they felt they were treated well, enjoyed a brief conversation. Only someone who can relate to others, make them feel appreciated, can stay in hospitality for as long as 37 years.
Lorrie Sitler By Dan Jensen
Lorrie Sitler believes she can provide some of the leadership that the Battle River School Division needs to maneuver its way through the tough challenges ahead. "I think I have many of the skills that can help bring the division to a brighter future," explained Sitler. "I am comfortable in lobbying the government and have several years of experience with special needs groups in advocating for an improved system." Sitler hopes that, as a school trustee, she can help repair the relationship between the BRSD and the community. "The implementation of administrative procedure 360 on assessments has done a lot of damage and is causing students and parents to feel as if they are not being heard or don't have a say," she said. "I want people to feel comfortable in voicing their opinion because it is important, in a successful education system, that everyone have a voice." Sitler feels the new assessment system is a major reason that the numbers in BRSD schools are decreasing and the numbers in separate schools are increasing. "We might not be able to bring back the kids who are already over there," she said, "but I think that rebuilding the relationship with the community will decrease the numbers that transfer there in the future." Sitler realizes that BRSD schools are getting older and that the division needs to put more money into the budget to deal with maintenance and infrastructure issues. "Just doing emergency repairs is going to have an effect on how well our schools hold up," she said. Sitler also realizes that the division will have to take a strong look at the budget to address the loss of the fuel transportation grant. Continued on page 36
Happy Thanksgiving!
“We have so much to be thankful for in Camrose. Please enjoy a safe weekend, and we’ll see you on the campaign trail next week.”
Camrose needs to be seen as a citizen-friendly city, not only a senior-friendly community. Camrose is a great city in which to raise a family and that simple message needs to be heard more. We all know taxes are a little high in Camrose, so I believe all city departments need to look at their budgets and find ways to cut or reduce spending without hurting our core services. Public transportation must be a priority. We have lots of seniors, low-income families and students who can’t afford two or three taxi trips per day. A bus service would improve the quality of life for these citizens. The need was identified many years ago. Let’s move forward.
The urban sprawl we are creating needs to be addressed. We need to decide if the city should be in the business of developing land. The owner of a westside residential development called his investment in Camrose his “worst.” We should find ways as a city to help developers, both large and small. Let’s move forward with their projects in an efficient and timely manner. Let’s pull down any road blocks and truly open our doors for business. As mayor I would open up discussions with the University of Alberta, Augustana Campus, and Dean Allen Berger, on ways we can work together to increase our student population. When the U. of A. expanded into Camrose its goal was to reach 2,000 students by 2010. Increasing the student population would bring benefits to all of Camrose. Let’s help them reach their goal. Let’s move forward. Our aquatic centre is in need of a major overhaul. Plenty of Camrosians have brought this to my attention. They don’t use the pool because of health concerns. They simply drive to Leduc to use their pool, thereby pulling dollars out of our community by shopping and eating out of town. All this, and nothing has been done. Let’s move forward.

“A voice for the arts community” Gordon Berg cherishes Camrose’s rich history with the arts. He believes we need to embrace the Bailey Theatre and the new Performing Arts Centre, and find ways to help Camrose’s many dance and drama groups to utilize these facilities more. If elected to city council, Gord would be a strong advocate for the arts, and is also passionate about Camrose’s vast parks system. He is a forward thinker, and is supportive of: the new City Hall project, the need for a new swimming pool, upgrading our water treatment facilities, establishing a joint City/County industrial park, an assessment of all the sports fields to determine if they need upgrading and would like to revisit the idea of bringing a public transit system to Camrose. Berg sees an opportunity to lobby the provincial government to have counties share pipeline and power line tax revenues. Through his experiences on many boards and executives, with part of his career spent working for various municipalities in Alberta, Gordon Berg has the knowledge and understanding that is required to be a great representative of the people of Camrose.

I’m concerned about:
Norm Erickson on Declining Enrollment in B.R.S.D. We must get to the real problem. If we can’t retain students who belong in our public schools, it’s a certainty that even more programs will be in jeopardy.
Norm Erickson on Class Sizes in B.R.S.D.
No matter how the message might be spun, there’s a point that class sizes are simply too big to allow an appropriate learning environment.
Norm Erickson on the Budgeting Process in the B.R.S.D. System
Local Taxation Levels: Data shows Camrosians now pay the fourth highest level of residential taxes amongst all Albertans. Our number one task as a cohesive council, in working with administration, will be to achieve a competitive level of taxation. Only then can we realistically attract development, business opportunities and regain our tarnished reputation amongst the corporate world decision-makers. At every level of local government I will expect a new era of fiscal responsibility.
For maximum learning, weight the available resources where they will have a more significant direct impact in the classroom.
A Significantly More Efficient Development Permit Process at City Hall:
Norm Erickson on Change
We’ve all heard or experienced first-hand the delays and excuses from the development department. Other communities much busier and with less personnel manage to cut through the paper trail and process far faster and with less frustration to those they serve. For many years this has been an election issue, yet change has not occurred to the positive. This situation must and will be addressed.
Norm Erickson “Let’s build trust through transparency”
A Customer Focused “City Hall”:
Sometimes people dig in too deep trying to be right. There’s definitely a place for tradition combined with innovation. If I’m elected to serve you, my priority will be to ensure the expectations of the public be met. It’s all about the students!

MAYER, Norm My goal is to serve the for Mayor community of Camrose, to help plan and build Hall a voice for blue collar people for the future. By Dan Jensen
Camrose is a vibrant and beautiful community. As a husband, new father, and co-owner of a local business, I have vested interest in optimizing our current resources and promoting the growth of Camrose.
Please Vote PJ Stasko, let me be your voice on Camrose City Council
Phil Hall would be a voice for the blue collar people of Camrose if elected on Oct. 21. "I believe in taking a straight forward approach," said Hall. "I am straight to the point and it is easy for me to ask the difficult questions. I am not afraid or embarrassed to say 'I don't understand that question, could you please rephrase it in different terms?'" Hall's political beliefs tie in with his beliefs on running a business. "I think when you are dealing with financial issues that the discipline has to be there," said Hall. "Discipline is a very important part of everything. Thirty years ago my wife and I developed a plan for our business that was based on discipline and as a result of that we have had very good success."
Phil Hall
Hall believes many problems can be solved by using a bit of common sense. "There are two old phrases: 'does it pencil?' and 'can you make it work on paper?' In almost everything you have you make it work on paper." Hall considers himself to be a good listener and someone who is able to both sides of the issue with an open mind. "There are a lot of different concerns in the com-
munity," he said, "and there are a lot of passionate people out there who are expressing those concerns. Platforms aren't as important to me as sitting, listening, understanding and then making a common sense decision like I would do in every other issue in my life. I do have the ability to make a decision very rapidly." Hall hopes to build a total team atmosphere within City council and to draw on the talents of the extremely accredited and talented staff within City administration. "A lot of these people have ongoing education and courses for the positions they are in. "We need to have effective communication with them." Hall isn't one of those people who believes in doing something the same way year after year. Continued on page 36

…Let’s get back to the basics
for Council
It’s abundantly clear to me that unless citizens and businesses are prepared to dig deep into their own resources and pay even higher levels of taxes, the City of Camrose has to enter a new era of spending. The bulk of our M.S.I. funding (pledged grants from the provincial government) has already been allocated to our City Hall project for the next three years. Local taxes will be counted on for our basic core services. It is my belief that the next City Council and Mayor must focus on fiscal responsibility. I’d be honored to serve you, as your ‘watchdog’ in this regard.
I would work for appropriate growth and good management to give Camrose a tax and revenue base to maintain and enhance facilities and services. Let’s make a good place to live even better. I have:

People often say that, in a democracy, decisions are made by a majority of the people. Of course, that is not true. Decisions are made by a majority of those who make themselves heard and who vote - a very different thing. ~Walter H. Judd
Phil Hall a voice for blue collar people Continued from page 35
"I think progress has a kind of unique formula to it," he said. "Nothing ever stays the same. Our business for example seems to be changing five years; what we did five, 10 or 15 years ago is no longer applicable. I think societies continually evolve and change as well, and that is why a person has to be open minded to all the issues." While he isn't up to date on all the issues facing the City, Hall is prepared to invest his time, efforts and energies to understand them. Hall came to Camrose on April 20, 1976, as a young police constable prospectus. "In those days we would chalk the tires on main street and physically walk the beat, shaking door handles of businesses," he said. "That was a great program because I got to meet every single merchant personally in the downtown core." Hall has been self employed for the last 30 years, running four different companies that service the oilfield, as well as a real estate business. He has travelled all over western Canada and the northwest States, as well as into the Yukon, but has never found a place that can compare to Camrose. "This city has it all," he said. "It is small but it has all the big city amenities. I think Camrose is one of our province's best kept secrets." Hall has three adult step sons, all of whom are very successful in their chosen fields. "My greatest pride is my family; they are all successful and great contributors to society, all of them equally," he said.

“As your voice on council, our city’s finances (your money) will be on my mind every time I make my decision.” Prudent spending – essential as almost never before in Camrose. I, for one, believe that as a municipality, we need to be abundantly more cautious about new projects, particularly those which would require borrowed funds. I would focus more on our “core services, i.e. road repairs and basic city infrastructure.

Davidse said ensuring quality education means that a school trustee must be engaged, action oriented and innovative, and have the courage to lead meaningful change. "The status quo is never enough, particularly in this new global and financially restrictive marketplace. All in all you can expect that I will continue to use my knowledge and experience in governance and policy, my excellent working relationship with colleagues and other elected officials. Ron Baier said his life has been his resume. "I am very involved in all areas of the church and leadership throughout the province, and I am currently chair of the board of directors of the Western Catholic Reporter. Baier said he has been directly involved with education in all grades throughout the school system, from the classroom to the board room and even the supreme court. "I have served five terms previously and I have a varied degree of experience related to Catholic education."

Janet Hatch brings a lot to the table
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them” - Albert Einst Einstein
Garth Horton Camrose Council Candidate
As a chartered hartered accountant, I am a not comfortable with the city’s current financial picture or numbers projected forward. Previous decisions by council pertaining to spending and allocation of resources have been costly. If a key goal is in fact a city competitive in taxation levels, we must quickly change our mindset at council level. Janet Hatch By Dan Jensen
Janet Hatch feels her experience and education as a regional planner can help the new City council move forward in the creation of a better community. "My planning background definitely gives me an advantage," said Hatch, who will seeking one of the eight City councillor positions on Oct. 21. "I have a strong knowledge of the Municipal Government Act and land use bylaws and I am committed to being of service." Hatch feels as a parent she can offer a perspective on Camrose that is different from many of the other candidates. "This is something I have had to do a lot of soul searching about," she said. "I had a very strong desire to come forward in the last election but the timing wasn't right for me or my family. I feel now that the ages of my children are such that I definitely can manage, and I am well supported." Hatch is excited about the way Camrose has been growing and progressing in recent years and feels that new development is going to go a long way in attracting future residents. "We really are able to offer something special," she said. "The performing arts centre, for example, is a tremendous asset." Hatch believes the new council has to refocus and reevaluate where it is with its finances before moving ahead with any more projects. "We have to see what the residents of Camrose want and then come up with a fiscal plan," she said. "If it is a new Camrose aquatic centre we have to see if it makes sense financially and if it is something that is going to be affordable to operate. We also have to make sure it is something wanted by the majority." Hatch would like to see the new City council focus on
“City of Camrose Working for You”
I respectfully ask you to vote for me to represent you on Camrose City Council
I will strive to be an effective and approachable city councillor
If elected to City Council, I will strive to: ➢ Work to establish a public transportation system for our city ➢ Work with local business to provide more effective city services to them ➢ Establish a privately run animal shelter ➢ Consult with other levels of government to look at the possibility of having a Geriatric Care Center in Camrose ➢ Fix our roads

WOOD, Greg FOR CITY COUNCIL
how to go about attracting more skilled labour. "It if requires offering incentives for businesses we need to take a look at that," she said, "because Camrose is just one of many communities that are looking for those kind of people. We need to stand out and need to step forward as being business friendly." Hatch feels it is important that the new City council promote greater understanding of local government with the youth. "With the opening of the new City Hall in the future I would like to see the City organize a facility tour for young people or even new Canadians who are coming to Camrose to live," she said. "There should be something a little more interactive with how our municipal government is run. I would like to see every child who is learning about government and school welcomed physically into City council chambers and given a sense of belonging. They need to feel that it is a comfortable place and that their voice matters because they are the ones that will be the future mayors and councillors." Hatch would also like to see the new council draw on some of the existing resources in the community such as the healthy eating coalition to promote healthy eating and lifestyles.

Cheryl Smith: A
s a public school trustee for the City of Camrose, I have advocated on behalf of hungry kids, bullied and excluded kids, kids with mental health issues, homeless kids and those who fall through the cracks. I’ve advocated for academically gifted students, those who struggle, those with special needs, immersion students, artistic kids, those interested in the trades, those who don’t know what direction to go. Every child learns differently; every child has their own challenges; every child has strengths that they can turn into success. If re-elected I am committed to an unrelenting focus on success for all students. Let’s be sure that they have the best possible opportunities in a rapidly changing world. Living in Camrose for 31 years, married to Ian, and raising our four children, I know that people here care about kids, and care about education. Parents, the community, all of us want to be consulted and included in decisions around our kids. If re-elected I am committed to finding ways to do that differently.

Right tire pressure offers better fuel economy Continued from page 40
"Most people around Camrose are pretty accepting of TPMS systems. We get more people thankful for both the safety of the system and savings with not having to replace run flat tires," added Craig. There are also two types of TPMS warning symbols. The most common low tire pressure light looks like a treaded horseshoe with an exclamation mark inside. The other TPMS symbol is the frame of a vehicle which highlights the tire with the low pressure. When your TPMS warning light comes on, this means that one or more of your tires may below recommended inflation pressure. Take caution and find a safe place to
pull out of traffic so you can stop to check your tires. If your tires aren’t blowing out, check your tire pressure or have them checked by a professional tire technician, then fill them to your manufacturer’s recommended pressure level. If necessary, have any damaged tires, as well as the TPMS system, serviced at your nearest tire service center. The TPMS light should turn off within several minutes after re-inflating the tires to their recommended pressure. Make a habit of checking your tire pressure regularly and re-inflating so you’re never at even five per cent below placard level. You’ll have better fuel economy and handling with properly inflated tires.
"At Kal Tire, your safety is our top priority. If your vehicle comes into our store with a safety device such as TPMS installed, we want to make sure it’s working when you leave," Craig said. "When you stop in to have your summer or winter tires changed over, or if you buy new rims, our trained technicians will need to service your TPMS to ensure it is working," he said. "Because we’re tire experts, we can also service your TPMS if the low tire pressure warning light illuminates. We’ll find the problem and inflate the tire or fix it, check all TPMS sensors, replace the valve components if necessary as well as reset and test your
TPMS system so you know it’s going to continue keeping you safe." Proper tire pressure saves lives, and it also saves energy, the environment and money. According to a recent study, about 50 per cent of the vehicles on the road in Canada have at least one tire that is either over or under-inflated by more than 10 per cent. In fact, 10 per cent of all vehicles surveyed had at least one tire under-inflated by 20 per cent. When your tires don’t have the right amount of air, the sides flex, bend and build heat. Under-inflated tires compromise your vehicle’s steering, braking and cornering abilities. Operating a vehicle with
just one tire under-inflated by eight PSI can reduce the life of the tire by 15,000 km. Annually, 643 million litres of extra fuel are consumed by Canadian vehicles because of improper tire maintenance practices. As a result, over one million tonnes of carbon dioxide are unnecessarily released into the environment. Fuel consumption increases by one per cent for every five per cent of under-inflation. Maintaining proper tire pressure could save you approximately two weeks of fuel a year, enough to pay for one full set of tires over the average nine-year life of a vehicle.

Tara Yuha couldn't believe it when she was invited to tryouts for Team Alberta in volleyball. "I went for tryouts in Edmonton after getting invited to the two-week camp in early July," said Tara. "After the camp they pulled you aside and gave it to you straight. I was selected to play for Team Alberta White and they took 24 girls in total. We were split into two teams." The Grade 11 Bawlf student went to the team Alberta camp with 60 girls and she was selected to represent the province in Regina during the Western Canadian Elite Volleyball finals. "We placed third in the tournament and we lost to B.C. in the semifinals," she explained. "Team Alberta Blue placed second and they lost to the same team that we lost to. It was a really good, fun experience. Just be to selected to go to the camp was an honour in itself." What Tara thought was a just camp invite, turned into a trip to Regina. "I was speechless. I never expected to make the team. I was there for the experience, to learn more about volleyball and enjoy the camp with all of the girls. When they told me that I made the team, I was in shock," she added. Tara made the U16 squad. At the same time of the camp, Alberta Volleyball was conducting camps for U16, U17, U18, U21 and the Canada Summer Games teams in both women's and men's age groups. "There were a lot of athletes together. It was interesting to watch the older players train and play. It was good volleyball to watch and you could learn from just watching them," she added. The coaches were impressed by her back row digging skills. "At school and in club volleyball, I usually am play middle. On Team Alberta, I played libero," said Tara. "It was a different role. On my other teams I was always 'liberoed' out. This time I was the libero. It was the opposite, but I really enjoyed it." The middle position is usually a player that is good at blocking at the net, while the libero is mostly a back row defensive specialist. "At first, the coaches told me that I was a defensive special because I was really good at reading the plays, always in the right position and making the first hit," said Tara. "It would have been tough for me to play middle when I was one of the shortest girls there at 5'8". My teammates were just as good as me, so I couldn't complain about not

Chevy Silverado New from hood to hitch
Pete Pastuck By Dan Jensen
The 2014 Silverado 1500 has arrived at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC. New from hood to hitch, the 2014 Silverado is engineered to be the strongest, smartest and most capable Silverado ever. "It's one of the most refined and best engineered pickups in the market – perfect for meeting the day to day challenges of earning a living, running a business and taking care of families," said McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC dealer principal Will McClellan. Major Silverado updates for 2014 include a trio of powerful, efficient EcoTec 3 engines, a stronger, quieter more comfortable cab, revised steering, suspension and brakes, ingenious solutions for managing cargo in the bed, and true truck capability for towing and hauling. Family of engines Silverado's EcoTec3 engines feature state-ofthe-art technologies – direct injection, cylinder deactivation and continuously variable valve timing – to make the most of power, torque and efficiency across a broad range of operating conditions. "They have all the
power and torque needed to handle the tough jobs and they seamlessly switch to four-cylinder mode to increase efficiency during light-load driving," said McClellan. The 4.3 litre V6 is SAE certified at 285 horsepower (212 kW) and 305 lb.-ft. of torque (413 Nm), the most torque of any standard V-6. The 5.3 V-8 is SAE certified at 355 horsepower (250 Kw) and 383 lb.-ft. of torque (519 Kw). With estimated fuel economy of 10.23 litres per 100 km on the highway (2WD), it offers the best fuel economy of any V-8 pickup. The 6.2 litre V-8 is the most capable engine offered in any light duty pickup truck. The EcoTec3 engines use direct fuel injection, which precisely metres fuel directly into the cylinders to optimize combustion over a broad range of conditions. They also feature a new cylinder head design and a new sculpted piston to optimize the mixing of air and fuel in the engine and the burning of the mixture to create power. The oiling system incorporates a new variable-displacement oil pump that enables a more efficient oil delivery based
on the engine's operating conditions. All three engines feature a six-speed automatic transmission with gear ratios and shift schedules optimized for performance and efficiency. The transmissions feature Auto Grade Braking, which downshifts on downgrades to help reduce brake wear. The suspension, steering and brakes have been extensively updated for a quieter, more refined ride and confident handling and braking. The rear suspension continues to use two-stage multi-leaf springs for an optimal balance between a smooth ride and load-carrying capability. Interiors The all new interiors of the 2014 Silverado 1500 emphasize form and function. "Silverado engineers sought to craft an interior that was quieter, roomier, more comfortable and more functional without making it look like the interior of a crossover," said McClellan. The upright instrument panel with its sixgauge cluster is tailored specifically to the needs of truck customers, and most models also include a colour Driver Information Centre displaying driver
and infotainment data. Controls were located with the use of reach curves, and important controls were placed closest to the driver and grouped functionally. Knobs, buttons and interfaces are large, easy to read and easy to operate, even while wearing gloves. Silverado's available MyLink information system is designed to be easy-to-use, highly customizable and capable of linking up to 10 devices. It features natural language voice recognition that allows users to place calls, enter destinations, browse media, play music and control other functions simply by telling the vehicle what to do. "There are no key phrases to remember and no need to look at a screen," said McClellan. MyLink can also be operated via large, clearly labelled knobs, through integrated steering controls, or through the touch screen. A new high-wear seat cloth that is more durable and easier to clean is available and the front seats have more durable dualdensity for improved comfort and longer life. Stronger To ensure the new Sil-
verado is up to the challenge, key elements of the updated frame, including the main rails and major cross members, are made from high-strength steel and hydroforming is used to improve strength and reduce mass of the front of the frame. The cab structures are all new, and incorporate high-strength steel in the A-pillars, B-pillars, roof rails and rocker panels. Ultra-high-strength steel is used in areas of the rocker panels and underbody in anticipation of new shallow-offset crash tests. In all, about two-thirds of the cab structure is made from high-strength steels, for a quieter ride, a more confident feel and enhanced performance on tougher government and industry crash tests. An internal torsion bar reduces the effort to raise and lower the tailgate, while a rotary damper allows for a controlled and more gradual lowering motion. Silverado continues to offer a comprehensive suite of standard safety features, including StabiliTrak, electronic stability control with trailer sway control and hill start assist, head curtain airbags with rollover protection, and OnStar

AC K N OW L E D G M E N T OF ACHIEVEMENTS OF ONE EMPLOYEE BY ANOTHER – You came to work for this company with no experience. You soon learned and saw the deficiencies.

I am the one and only witness. You would be a credit to any company workforce. I feel privileged to have worked with you these past tenplus years. “Walk tall with your head held high” and be proud of yourself, as I am of you, Janine Swanson. Many happy times ahead. – Richard R.

A Recipe for Fire Safety Camrose children are a key ingredient in A Recipe for Fire Safety, this year's national safety campaign supporting Fire Prevention Week from Oct. 6 to 12. Local fire service and area educators and the Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs (CAFC) will be teaching children and their families how to prevent cooking fires – the leading cause of home fires. Prevent Kitchen Fires is this year's official Fire Prevention Week theme. "Through A Recipe for Fire Safety campaign, the fire service and teachers will be able to work together to make our children more informed about fire safety at home," says Stephen Gamble, president, Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs. "What we need parents and guardians to do is to continue the learning at home, to teach children how to create and practice a home fire escape plan, and, to check every smoke alarm in their home to ensure they are working and that they are less than 10 years old." “We all have a role to play in preventing fires in our homes," adds Gamble. "As Thanksgiving approaches, get youngsters to share what they have learned through the campaign. We should all exercise more caution in the kitchen with family and any house guests." Teachers of JK to Grade 3 have been provided a curriculum of five fire safety lesson plans and homework kits from CAFC. Participating classes also have the chance to win prizes. A different lesson has been developed for each day of Fire Prevention Week, as well as a simplified Recipe for Fire Safety checklist families can use at home. Lessons include: A Recipe for Kitchen Fire Safety: students will learn basic fire safety practices in the kitchen. What’s Hot What’s Not?: students will identify things that get hot and be shown how to stay safe. Smoke Alarms Take Tests Too!: students will be taught to understand the importance of testing smoke alarms. When Your Smoke Alarm Turns 10!: students will learn that all smoke alarms must be replaced every 10 years. Home Escape Plans: students will be taught the importance of home escape plans and be encouraged to create and practise one at home with their parents. Carol Heller, a home safety expert with campaign partner Kidde Canada says, the CAFC have done great work with the curriculum to help educators address some of the key behaviours that can improve fire safety in our homes. "Starting those lessons early contributes to a generation of fire-safe families.

Camrose school realignment:
Working group meets for the first time Over the last few years, Battle River School Division has been experiencing demographic changes. In the City of Camrose, that has included: • Having more younger students than older students enrolled in local schools; • Some Camrose schools being crowded, others not, as neighborhoods grow and change. In order to plan for the future, BRSD is coordinating a “working group” of parents and school administrators from City of Camrose schools to gather information, talk about the realities of space within the schools and develop options for how local schools might be configured in the future. The group is working together in seeking to create long-term solutions which are in the best interests of students. The first meeting of that working group took place on the evening of Monday, September 30. The purpose of the first evening was to gather information about how school space has been utilized in the past and also review projections for the future about how our community is expected to grow and the impact that might have on our schools. Potential solutions developed by the working group will be presented to parents at all Camrose schools later this fall and the working group will make a recommendation to the Board of Trustees in early 2014. Check BRSD’s website (www.brsd.ab.ca) for further information on this process.
