Bruderheim Mayor Karl Hauch praised town staff for their efforts in ensuring the very best of service delivered to the community particularly when faced with an emergency. “Team Bruderheim went above and beyond this past Friday in supporting emergency services during a structure fire in Brookside,” he said. “Public works staff ensured appropriate water distribution during the emergency, as well, Sherry Cote, director of legisla-
tive services, took on connecting the fire victims with lodgings, food and support.” Hauch added that there have been inquiries on starting donations for the victims, however at this time the family is asking for privacy and don’t wish for a public fundraising campaign. Cause of the fire is still under investigation and damage estimates are unknown.

MLA visits hemp facility construction site BY JANA SEMENIUK The Bruderheim hemp facility construction site recently enjoyed a visit from local MLA Jackie Armstrong-Homeniuk. “She (ArmstrongHomeniuk) is a good representative for us and very interested in what we are doing. It was nice for her to see rural Alberta at its finest.” said Canadian Rockies Hemp Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer Aaron Barr. Doug Sullivan, Bruderheim’s Economic Development Officer, scheduled the visit during an already scheduled stop in Bruderheim for Armstrong-Homeniuk. During the tour, Barr said she was very happy to see this type of investment being put into small towns and was amazed at the changes already being experienced by some local businesses as a result. “We joked with her about how we went into Lily’s for lunch the other day and it was packed
full of construction workers. It’s nice to see the economy being boosted at the gas stations, grocery stores and restaurants because of what we are doing,” he said. An unusually wet season delayed construction of the facility by more than two months. “I’m happy to report that our building is actually up now,” said Barr. “Next week our floor is being poured and our scale will be arriving so bales will start to be delivered in the next couple of weeks. We are hoping to have equipment delivered by December and processing to begin in January or February.” At an open house earlier this year, residents expressed concerns over the facility including traffic, dust, security as well as the amount of water that comes from the property affecting neighbouring lots. Ron Ewasiuk, whose property lies directly North of
the hemp facility, expressed concern that changing the landscape with construction would increase the amount of water that flows to his property already. “Trying to get the ponds in before the wet season was challenging. We couldn’t even get equipment in there because of all the rain. We’ve now put in four large ponds to capture the water. Two are for fire prevention and two are for storm water management,” said Barr. “We’ve also re-contoured the landscape to better capture the water into the ponds.” The amount of water this year, being a particularly wet year, Barr said was ‘mind blowing’ however feels very confident that next year a huge improvement will be experienced. Of the 32 farmers on board growing hemp this year with CRHC, Barr said 30 of them were very happy with the quality of their crops. He
added that CRHC is aiming for up to 200 farmers for next year. “Hemp has been grown in Alberta since 1998,” he said. “This year was a learning process for everyone as our program has a different way
of harvesting.” Barr added that hemp crops fit well in the rotation schedule for farmers as they have a short growing season of a 6080 day seed to harvest. Barr added that CHRC will be starting the hiring
process in the next few weeks and are currently looking for an Agronomist. He is looking to initially hire 10 – 20 labourers to start and increase that number each year.

Asian culture celebrated at Culture Day event Bruderheim dance company Xpressions Dance Studio. Asian music filled the air as dancers waved handkerchiefs and beat drums while wearing brilliant costumes. Traditional Chinese Lion and Dragon dances were also included. In addition, guests enjoyed some cultural appetizers including spring rolls, wontons and fortune cookies One Mongolian dance number encompassed costumes which included arm sleeves that extended far beyond each dancer’s hands. The Mongolian dance uses large arm movements to
symbolize the eagle in flight. Although the dancers experienced technical difficulties when, just a few minutes into their dance, the music unexpectedly stopped playing, the group soldiered on and
performed in spite of the mishap. According to Culturedays.ca, Alberta Culture Days began in 2008. It was originally known as Alberta Arts Day which was a oneday event to recognize
the value of Alberta's arts and culture communities. Today it’s a threeday event, held during the last weekend of September. As part of National Culture Days. It includes more than 800 communities from all

Opinion With a Rebel yell, no more There is a rumour that has been going around about PM Trudeau this past week. It is some nasty hearsay about the reason he left West Point Grey Academy mid-year in 2001. I question whether it is true, due to the fact that this election isn’t his first foray into politics and it makes me wonder why it was not uncovered four years ago, or more, when he was first attempting to become Prime Minister of Canada. However, there is apparently a court injunction stopping the Globe and Mail from publishing the story. That too could, quite honestly, be a rumour. That’s our world today, where separating information from misinformation is a difficult task for the general public. The media used to do that for us. We could count on journalism to be fair and honest. Not anymore. Eveyone has become tribal including most media. Journalists know what tribe they are joining when they begin working for a national media company. One such group is Rebel Media. When I first got involved with social media, I came upon a couple of interviews they featured exposing people as hypocrites. One such person was David Suzuki. The environmentalist apparently had up to five different homes he was heating and was very shifty when asked direct questions about his apparent hypocrisy. For a person preaching to society about their environmental flaws, these were legitimate questions. It wasn’t long after, however, when I saw a Rebel video they had posted of PM Trudeau being interviewed in the US. It was early in his tenure as PM, and the short video made him look like a complete idiot saying “um” time and time again while failing to even properly know the topic of discussion. When I looked up the full interview on Youtube, I discovered that Rebel had cut the interview several times to purposely make Trudeau look stupid and unsure of himself. In reality he did fine during the interview. But Rebel Media is on the Right Wing Tribe. CBC is on the Left Wing Tribe, as are most news agencies in Canada. I am still looking for a tribe which will abide by the code of journalism ethics and reports without fear or favour.
Why are our governments supporting businesses that don’t support our society? The good news is that in the past 15 years, advertising revenue in Canada has gone up 60 percent. The bad news is that most of it is going to internet companies which have no physical location in Canada, don’t hire Canadians, and pay no Canadian taxes. In the early 2000s, internet advertising was only accounting for three percent of all Canadian advertising. Today they are taking half of all advertising spent by Canadians - some $7 billion every year - tax free. Radio, TV, newspapers, and magazines now get a smaller share of gross Canadian advertising than ever, yet pay Canadian employees and contribute taxes while their largest competitors unfairly get a free ride. Some of the largest advertisers in Canada with these foreign internet companies (believe it or not) are Canadian governments. Yes, they take your tax money and send it out of our country where it will never recirculate back to you. Unbelievable. Kerry Anderson
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Educational choice has saved Albertans billions over the years Alberta’s independent schools and home education saved taxpayers $1.9-billion over eight years, according to a new report commissioned by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) and Alberta-based Parents for Choice in Education (PCE). “The province’s own data shows clearly that independent schools and home education are a bargain for taxpayers, since these students receive only a fraction of the per-student amount provided to public schools and receive zero per cent for their capital costs, including buildings and busing,” says
policy analyst Mark Milke, who co-authored the report with CTF’s Paige MacPherson. Key findings in the report, How educational choice saved Alberta taxpayers $1.9 billion and supports student success, include: Taxpayer costs per student enrolled in independent schools ($5,404) and home education ($1,671) are substantially lower than in government schools ($10,801); The existence of government funding for independent schools and home education has saved taxpayers
$1.9 billion over eight years, which is greater than the money needed for all requested capital projects by the four largest Alberta government school divisions over the next three years; and, Enrollment numbers between 2010/11 and 2017/18 show that growth was slowest in public-government schools when compared to all other education options analyzed, meaning families are increasingly seeking alternatives to public-government schools.

FROM WHERE I SIT: It doesn’t look bad
BY HAZEL ANAKA Recently, I had the opportunity to spend some time in seniors’ lodges as I did some preelection work for Elections Canada. It was a pleasant, eye-opening experience. Like many people, I’d been operating with some pre-conceived ideas about that housing and the state of the people living there. No doubt, you or someone you know has uttered the words: “If I ever get to that stage, just shoot me.” It may have
been said sincerely or for a cheap laugh. With the dying with dignity law now in place across Canada, ending one’s life is considerably easier, if the stringent safeguard conditions are met. What I saw were, for the most part, bright, airy, clean spaces. There were no disturbing smells. Many of them were bustling with activity. A clothing sale in one, a chocolate bingo in another, bean bag toss happening in a third, a weekly church service in another. In one place the dining room offered free beverages. Another had a glass case for Zeus, the resident bearded dragon. Nearby, a caged bird also brought life to the facility. We saw many people making miles in the corridors even if they had those wheeled walker/seats to assist them. We saw ladies
wearing makeup and fancy jewelry, and sporting colourful manicures. In one facility, we made room visits. I was impressed to see surprisingly large rooms. A sewing machine in one, a TV tuned to MSNBC in another, an open book on a recliner in another, a Bible in another. Most people had a fridge and assorted snacks. It was clear people brought some of their own furniture and nearly everyone had family photos covering the walls. Most residents also had their own telephones for another level of independence. All this made me feel good. It showed that people can continue to have some of their prized possessions near them. They can continue to pursue their hobbies and interests if their health permits. Another thing that
struck me was the beautiful penmanship of the men and women who signed our documents. So refreshing today where schools have ceased teaching handwriting. I think we’ve all seen some of the illegible scrawls or other marks resembling printing that pass as cursive these days. Those senior signatures were a point of pride. They apologized if they were shaky or slow and seemed genuinely disappointed that they couldn’t sign as easily and beautifully as they once did. As someone with a painful index finger slowly getting
deformed by arthritis, I was dismayed to see what can happen to hands over the decades. Such a vital part of our bodies and functionality being ruined by time. We saw people in their eighties and nineties with great mobility, smooth faces, sharp minds, a mischievous sense of humour. We had one woman tell us to treat her boyfriend well. We saw couples lovingly helping each other not carping or nagging or fighting. We didn’t visit long term care so we didn’t see those requiring the most care or living with

FORMER PRINCIPAL THANKED Former Bruderheim School principal Paul McKay was feted by Bruderheim council, Oct. 2, for his years at the school. McKay left the school after the last school year and has been replaced by new principal Cheryl Semeniuk.
Letter: Educational choice savings Donna Trimble, Executive Director of Parents for Choice in Education, sees this report as essential to confronting false narratives about education fund-
ing. “Alberta families from a range of socioeconomic backgrounds are increasingly seeking alternatives to publicgovernment schools to support student success. Any loss of funding for these alternatives would not only cost taxpayers more, but also create a two-tier system where only the wealthy can afford education
choice and no one else can.” “Education choice is saving taxpayers a ton of money. With the Alberta government steamrolling towards $100 billion in debt, it needs to look at all options for saving money, such as supporting education choice for parents and students. Franco Terrazzano
arguably less quality of life. We did see people in the lodges who were tuned out and languishing in front of the TV. Who knows their stories? Maybe that’s how they spent their prime time; maybe their current health prevents more animated living. What I wish for you and me is independence and good health, physical and mental, for as long as possible. When that is no longer the case, I hope we can embrace the next phase with acceptance and grace. I’ve seen the future and it doesn’t look bad, from where I sit.

Provincial belt tightening concerns local mayors “Nobody wants to move taxes up because people get mad at you...” - Mundare Mayor Saric We don’t know how much of a reduction there will be there.” Lamont is in the process of beginning planning their next budget and it worries Skinner not knowing what lays ahead in terms of cuts from the province. “Until we see what the provincial budget looks like and know what happens with MSI funding, gas tax, education tax and other things it’s hard to say,” he said. “We try not to overburden our residents with tax increases, but our capital costs do keep increasing whether it be insurance, labour costs, or the costs of certain projects we have to do such as infrastructure projects.” “We want to avoid putting an extra tax burden on our residents if we can,” he added. In Mundare, Mayor Mike Saric said he’s been warning his council of this situation for the past year. “We have banked on MSI for years,” he said. “In some ways it’s like crack for small munici-
palities.” “Nobody wants to move taxes up because people get mad at you,” he said. “And if you do you run the risk of losing residents and businesses. “But there is going to be belt tightening.” He said he hopes the government leaves major area such as infrastructure alone and instead cuts back in other areas where people can do without some of the things they may take for granted. He pointed to Mundare’s $1 to $1.5 million upgrade to the community’s life station. “We don’t have that money and we know we’ll have to implement some sort of local improvement tax and we’re applying for a grant which could cover up to 75 percent of it which would be ideal, but there’s no guarantees.” He said he has spoken with the local MLA to plead that money for this project still be available. “I really don’t think anyone has given a lot of consideration to the ram-

ifications of provincial cutbacks.” But, he added, nobody has a clue what’s going on in terms of funding and grants cuts to municipalities. One area that has changed is the approval process for MSI projects which has been streamlined to allow municipalities to proceed with them faster. “We used to have to inform the minister of what we were going to do and once it was reviewed provincially, then the minister would give approval for the project to the proceed,” said Saric. “Now there will be an approved list of projects and if our projects fit the criteria we can move ahead without approval from the province.” He did say some of the MSI funds were earmarked for the life sta-
tion upgrades, but much of that spending was in the design and engineering phase. “Once that MSI grant tightens up the municipality doesn’t have any choice but to look at alternative fundraising,” he said. “But what are we going to do? We have to provide basic services to our residents and we have to pay for them. And what we need has to come before what we want.” Skinner concurs.
“You can’t afford to be borrowing every time you need something, because you incur all those interest charges,” he said. “Right now until we see what the provincial budget looks like and just how aggressive the province is about reducing its deficit, we won’t know how big an impact it will have on us. Right now there’s just not enough information to say what position we’re in.”

BY JOHN MATHER Following a bear pit session with Alberta Municipal Affairs minister Kaycee Madu during the Alberta Urban Municipalities Conference in Edmonton last week, local mayors came away with concerns about just how their municipalities are going to make ends meet. Madu urged the delegates to help the government reduce the deficit by cutting back on their own spending. “We are in a tough economic situation,” Madu told them. “It is my expectation that all of us will work together to overcome the current difficulties. But he didn’t spell out what that would mean. The MacKinnon report released recently is putting forth the design of the Alberta budget expected later this month. But it said the province can’t keep providing the same level of capital grants, particularly when municipalities have the ability to raise property taxes. The report recommended the province allocate funding to capital projects based on provincial priorities and then make the municipalities burden a larger share. “There’s really not a lot to tell until the province comes out with a provincial budget and we can know exactly what to expect,” said Lamont town mayor Bill Skinner. “All indications are we’re going to be seeing reductions in grant funding.” He added there were seminars going on and some municipalities would be looking at a different police funding model. Right now communities with less than 5,000 population don’t pay directly for the policing services they receive. That may change. “All these things combined are going to make it more difficult for municipalities,” Skinner added. “We don’t know how sustainable our MSI (Municipal Sustainability Initiative Grant) funding is going to be.

Farriers show horseshoe making skills BY JOHN MATHER A group of farriers came together in Chipman Oct. 5, to showcase their skills. The competition was held in conjunction with the wagon trail ride held annually in the small community east of Lamont. According to organizer Jessie Robinson the competitions are held several times a year to bring the farriers, people who make horseshoes, together from across the province. He said generally there are three categories for the farriers to compete in. Division one is for those beginning in the trade, division two an intermediate competition, and division three is an open competition. At the Chipman competition held at the town’s Agricultural Grounds, eight local competitors built horsehoes in division two. “Farriers will have to build seven shoes and they compete for prizes and bragging right,” said Robinson. “A lot of times in this trade we work in isolation, so these competitions serve to invigorate us,” he said. “It helps make us better when we go back to work on Monday. We’ll end up

Robinson said there are two schools where they learn the trade in Western Canada, one in Olds and one on the BC coasts. “Once you’ve graduated it’s recommended you
work as an apprentice with a journeyman farrier to further learn the trade.” He said in the Lamont County area there would be half a dozen farriers although not all were competing. In Western Canada, he said there was the Western Canada Farriers Association based in BC. The Chipman competition wasn’t a sanctioned event.

Bruderheim rejects franchise fee for town BY JOHN MATHER Bruderheim has once again rejected the franchise fees that can be applied to Fortis Alberta utility bills. The subject was broached by administration during the Oct. 2 council meeting. Administration had recommended a five percent fee, but said the town could also vote for a zero franchise fee or they could approve a different percentage up to 20 per cent. Councillor Judy Schueler made the motion to approve a five per cent fee. “I’m totally opposed to it,” said Councillor Len Falardeau. “It’s a hidden tax and I think we have to show some restraint and not tax our citizens more.” “I don’t think it’s a good idea,” he continued. “And I don’t think our citizens would think it’s a great idea either. The only problem is they wouldn’t even know it hit them until they saw their utility bill up by five per cent.” Schueler said she felt she could support the motion because it would apply a tax to all residents including renters whom she felt didn’t pay any property taxes.
“Our property taxes right now just hits property owners,” she said. “But if we also established a franchise fee it would be applied to renters making it a bit more even across the board.” “Probably about 35 per cent of our town is rentals, so it would balance it out a bit more,” she said. “It would also help us out with our budget.” Deputy mayor Pat Lee argued against another franchise fee saying the town already had one with Atco. Councillor George Campbell wanted to know if the franchise fee was levied on the total bill or just on the consumption, to which Chief Administrative Officer, Patty Podoborozny replied she wasn’t sure, but would check. Campbell continued, stating if it was on the total bill it could result in a hike of close to $100 per year for the average family. Further, he said, he agreed with the other councillors that to put an additional tax in place right now would be a burden for the seniors and low income ratepayers.
“I think we’ve gotten along to date without it and if the economy improves then maybe look at it, but not right now.” Councillor Wayne Olechow wondered whether the fees would be directed to putting additional lighting in areas of town that didn’t have adequate lighting. Podoborozny replied the franchise fee proceeds could be applied to wherever council wanted them to go. Schueler again said she wanted to level the tax burden between the renters and property owners. Falardeau argued renters do pay taxes through their rental payments. “The owner pays the taxes, but he takes it out of the rental costs,” he said. “Nobody gets a free ride.” Olechow felt they had to approve the fee because the town had to improve lighting in some areas. “We either do this or we have to add it to taxes in another area.” Campbell agreed the town had to designate spending for specific projects, but he didn’t think just adding taxes was the best way to

accomplish that. Mayor Karl Hauch was worried about unknowns that could soon be forced on the town including policing costs. “Further when this comes back in the future, can we find out what the total money coming to the town would be and administration can suggest where that money should be spent.” Podoborozny replied based on a five per cent fee it might come in at around $50,000 annually and council could designate where the money was spent. Schueler pointed out Andrew had a franchise fee at three per cent and was looking at hiking it to seven per cent. Council defeated the motion for a five per cent fee and passed a new one stating there would be a zero franchise fee in the community.

Senior Bruderheim Comets hit the ice
BY JANA SEMENIUK The Bruderheim Comets, a new senior men’s hockey team, debuted at Sherwood Parks’ Glen Allan Recreation Centre on Sept. 29, playing the Sherwood Park Old
Tuckers. They were defeated 7-2. “What a great time,” said Bruderheim Mayor Karl Hauch, also a player on the new team. “We even had fans from Bruderheim there watching!”
Thirteen residents make up the new senior men’s, division three, hockey team who play in the North of 50 hockey league. Other teams making up the division carry names such as The Dusters, Old Gold,
FIELDS OF GOLD
Elders, and Night Hawks. “We actually didn’t have a men’s team in town for senior guys,” said Hauch. “So, we thought it would be great to start one of our
own.” Hauch added that they were encouraged to join the North of 50 league after speaking with the president, Bob Young, in June. Hauch added that the
team has local kids and adults refereeing their games and will be playing in places like New Serepta and Sherwood Park.
Several members of the Bruderheim Comets senior hockey team pose with the new silks. From the left is Bruderheim Mayor Karl Hauch, one of the biggest promoters of the club as well as a player.

Falardeau heaps praise on rec. board
BY JOHN MATHER Councillor Len Falardeau heaped high praise on the town’s recreation board following the cultural days at the Bruderheim School, Sept. 28. “I want to applaud them for putting on a great cultural show,” he told council, Oct. 2. “It was probably one of the best shows I’ve seen in years and years. The Chinese Cultural Centre from Edmonton put on an amazing show and I just want to congratulate them.” He said the only down side to the event was the lack of public at the
event. “I don’t think we got the attendance we wished for but don’t know how we can improve on that.” That led to a brief discussion on how the town does its advertising for community events. “We don’t seem to have a magic formula for how we promote events and get our townspeople to attend,” said Mayor Karl Hauch. “I don’t know what the answer is but I do know people read the newspaper and maybe we should put ads there as well, even though that does cost money.”
CAO Patty Podoborozny said for the cultural event she had advertised on the town’s website and sent flyers home with students at the school. “We did have a lot of kids at the event,” she added. “So I guess that worked.” Councillor George Campbell asked for a follow up on the town’s request for a meeting with the RCMP to discuss rural crime. Legislative services officer Sherry Cote reported she had spoken with Inspector Michael McCauley, Officer in Charge, at the Fort

Saskatchewan RCMP detachment and a meeting was being planned. “He wondered if we could partner with Lamont since many of the local communities are asking for he same thing,” she said. “But Lamont council would rather meet alone because they want to discuss issues specific to their own community, much the same as we do.” she said. “We’ll have a separate night.” She said Lamont was looking at the first week of November, so the town would look for a different date.
Campbell said he brought it back up because there were several meetings being held with the solicitor general and different communities regarding protecting a person’s property. “I think that’s one of the toughest things people face right now... is how do they protect their own property,” he said. The council began their meeting with a presentation to the past principal of the Bruderheim School, Paul McKay, In making the presentation, Mayor Hauch thanked him for his service to the town and said
he would be missed. New principal Cheryl Semeniuk then told council about how taking over from McKay was one of her “dream jobs.” She said she had lived in the area for a long time and while she had many jobs within the Elk Island School District, becoming the new principal at the Bruderheim School with a high point. She then reported to council on the various upcoming activities that are planned at the school during the coming year.
Workers erect a new billboard alongside Highway 45 in Bruderheim recently. The new billboard ready to rent indicates economic prosperity may be just around the corner.

Lamont Chamber of Commerce survives second AGM Needed quarum filled with Cathy Goulet elected for second term as president BY JANA SEMENIUK The Lamont and District Chamber of Commerce (LDCC) was successful in achieving a quorum with their second attempt at an annual general meeting on Oct. 7. A previous attempt in June saw only six members of 29 show up for the meeting. Bylaws state that at least 25 per cent of the membership must be in attendance at
an AGM to reach a quorum that could accept financial statements and elect a new executive. Another meeting was scheduled for Oct. 7 in a second and final attempt. If a quorum could not be reached, the group would take steps to dissolve the association. Seven members were needed at the second meeting and nine members were in attendance plus one new member,
Debbie Fountain who owns a flower shop in Lamont. “I’m pleased that we had a quorum and we are able to continue for another year,” said second term president Cathy Goulet. “I hope we will continue to get new members and continue to build into the next year.” Second term vice president Debbie Wasylynchuk was also
happy the LDCC will continue. “I was one of the founding members so I am very happy to continue to support the chamber,” she said. LDCC meetings are scheduled for every third Monday of the month with the next one on November 18 at the Bruderheim Firehall.

7 running but only three show for all-candidate forum in Vegreville BY JOHN MATHER The candidates seeking the federal seat in the Lakeland riding seem to be pretty scarce this election. Shannon Stubbs, the incumbent, is campaigning throughout the sprawling riding but it seems her opposition hasn’t got too much fight. Only two, Liberal Mark Watson and Peoples Party of Canada representative Alain Houle bothered to show up and debate in Vegreville on Oct. 3. Forum moderator Brent Kellington was disappointed by the lack of candidates. “It’s unfortunate the others couldn’t come,” said moderator Brent Kellington. “I never take it lightly when a candidate can’t make the
debate. But the three who did attend took it very seriously.” Absent were Robert McFadzean with the Libertarian Party of Canada, Kira Brunner of the Green Party of Canada, Roberta Marie Graham of the Veterans Coalition Party of Canada, and Jeffrey Swanson of the NDP. While a few of the candidates have provided information on themselves, calls to a couple of the party emails went unanswered last week. Liberal candidate Mark Watson did provide a full background sheet on his credentials. Watson spent nearly a decade as a reporter with the Smoky Lake Signal and served as a councillor and Deputy Mayor of Smoky Lake from 2010 to 2013.

side of the major centres, and creation of opportunities “for our younger residents, and children for education, employment and residents in the areas close to where we currently live.” Alain Houle announced earlier this summer, he would carry the People’s Party of Canada banner into the election. Houle said he had been a conservative, but
had become deeply concerned with the political climate of the nation and many of the decisions Conservative leader Andrew Scheer was making. “I signed on with the PPC last spring because all their values lined up with the mine, but I still felt compelled to do more,” he said. “It is important to me to bring awareness to the issues at hand and to make sure that the people in this riding have another choice on the ballot.” An email from the Green Party confirmed Kira Brunner is running for the party in Lakeland. The email states Brunner was born and raised in Elk Point, is an active member in the community and is a
member of the Community Policing Advisory Policing Committee. The provincial board in a release said she is an active outdoor enthusiast who loves canoeing, backpacking, and tenting. “She can’t wait to help build a stronger, greener, Alberta,” said the release. Carrying the banner for the NDP is University of Alberta political science student Jeffrey Swanson. Swanson is Vice President of the U of A Campus New Democrat club. Robert McFadzean is the candidate for the Libertarian Party of Canada, and Roberta Marie Graham is running for the Veterans Coalition Party of Canada.

Rail safety stressed at fire hall
BY JOHN MATHER Four-year-old Charles Perras didn’t know quite what to make of it when CN Community Service Officer, Dean Solowan, bent down to talk to him about train safety at the Bruderheim Fire Hall, Sept. 26. “Do you think there’s trains around here?” asked Solowan. “Do you hear the bells and whistle before you cross?” Perras, having gone into complete shy mode, refused to give an answer. Solowan had been giving train safety and awareness information to students at the Bruderheim School before bringing his message to the fire hall later in the evening to talk to both children and adults. With information brochures and giveaways, Solowan explained the ways to be better prepared to handle living around train tracks. “It’s railway safety week and this works in conjunction with it,” said Solowan. “This is a campaign to educate people about the dangers that exist around trains,” he said. “One of our areas of focus is education and this week we go around the province to make people, especially young people aware of the dangers that exist.” He said it was just to give out key points such as on every crossing there is an emergency sticker with a number to call if an incident occurs. He added CN officials want people to keep a safe distance from the tracks if the signals area activated. “We tell the kids to take several steps back if a train is going through a crossing just to be on the safe side.” He stated people had to be really aware around double tracks as just because a train has gone by, it doesn’t mean another train could also be coming from a different direction. He added the fire services have a railsafe app available for the captains or persons in authority and it lets them know when a train comes through their area. If there is a reason for first
responders to be present they can look at a rail car and scan it with the app and they’ll know what the weight of the car is, what its contents are and where it is going to. He said the message at the fire hall is blended for both young and older audiences. “We want to people to avoid trespassing on the railroads,” he said. “If it’s youth we’ll advise their parents and have them come and get them. If it’s an adult trespassing there’s a $287 ticket.” He added the ticket doesn’t go away if unpaid but is rather added to the bill when the person would renew their driver licence or purchases updated licence plates. Solowan said Bruderheim was the only community in Lamont County he visited, but he’d also been to
Westlock and Lloydminster and Edmonton. With Edmonton, he said, much of the lesson dealt with safety around the LRT tracks. Solowan added that in 2018 there were 57 relat-

Four-year-old Charles Perras of Bruderheim isn’t exactly sure what to make of CN Community Service Officer, Dean Solowan, as he tries to encourage him with a small noisemaker, during the CN Rail Safety evening, held at the Bruderheim Fire Hall, Sept. 26. Solowan had been in the town earlier in the day talking to children at the Bruderheim School on rail safety as part of CN’s rail safety week. In the evening he gave his talk to both adults and youngsters.
