Mundare Air Cadets cancel Zombie Run for second time
Heroes in the Sky is back for the 6th year MAUREEN SULLIVAN For the sixth year, the Town of Lamont Firefighters with the Friends of the Lamont Firefighter Society, will be hosting the Heroes in the Sky fundraiser at the Lamont County building in Lamont on Saturday. This year members from the Mundare Fire Department will be helping with a vehicle extrication demonstration. Heroes in the Sky began when a collective group of fire departments, in association with the Fire Within Group, joined forces to raise awareness and support for local fire departments. The date is chosen as the closest weekend to the 9/11 tragedy in the United States, to honour and reflect upon the 343 firefighters who lost their lives that day. All money raised, goes towards community awareness initiatives, fire prevention education and advanced training opportunities for members of the local department. "In the past, community members and the general public who have attended the event have been extremely generous," says local firefighter Lt. Andrew McDonald. "It has been in the thousands over the last six years" "We hope everyone can come down to the County Admin parking lot on Sept. 8, to enjoy some hotdogs and burgers. We will have raffles, bouncy houses, a dunk tank and an interesting vehicle extrication demo starting at about 12:30." Helping the fundraising results in hotdogs, hamburgers and popcorn with your generous donation. See fire prevention and fire truck displays, a vehicle extrication demo and enter for door prizes and raffle. The kids will enjoy a visit with Sparky, a bouncy house and the dunk tank.

JOHN MATHER Whether it was a lack of zombies or a lack of runners, the Mundare Air Cadets Zombie run rescheduled for Sept. 15, has been cancelled again. The run had been slated to be held at Ukrainia Park in May, but wet spring weather and flooding forced postponement at that time. “We just didn’t get enough response,” said Sheryl Jamison of the second cancelation. “Unfortunately we had to cancel it again.” Jamison added she had no idea whether the squadron would try to hold the event next year. “That depends on what the executive decides,” she stated.
Because of the town’s location, the cadets had been hoping for a large turnout for the event and had approached town council for support. She had asked council if the town could help out with materials for obstacles, such as culverts, large tires, straw bales, netting and other things to climb over or under. Councillor Irene Talaga had reported to Jamison back in the spring the town could assist with traffic control and there were areas the fire department could have helped with. Jamison was looking for a variety of volunteers to take photos during the event, to assist with make up and do other chores.

Town Councillors discuss Lamont park issues; inspection needed JOHN MATHER Community parks received much attention during the Lamont regular council meeting Aug. 28. The Parks Planning committee received grants of $10,000 from Pembina Pipeline and $1,500 from MEG Energy to be used for outdoor exercise equipment. Fortis Alberta provided a grant of $2,500 and private donations totaling $999.35 had been received earmarked for Hillside Park. The committee asked council to approve the purchase, shipping and installation of two pieces of exercise equipment totaling $3,850. In addition they want to install a waste/recycle bin combination at a cost of $2,500 and start on phase 1 of a bike skills park at a cost of $8,000. Councillor Parry Koroluk wondered if the exercise equipment was a practical purchase. “I have been through the park on a number of occasions and never seen anyone using the existing equipment and I wonder if the dollars couldn’t be spent in a better manner.” He said he didn’t understand the equipment but that might be his own fault. Mayor Bill Skinner said he had seen people using the equipment and had some phone calls from residents supporting the additions. Councillor Kirk Perrin, who sits on the parks committee, said the grants were specific for this type of equipment and residents had told him, they wanted to see the equipment purchases continue. Councillor Dave Taylor said in the parks planning documents it was
identified that this type of equipment be purchased. He added he’s heard from seniors who use some of the equipment every day and when he’s going through the park with his kids he sees the equipment being used. The two pieces of equipment, said Taylor, are not similar to existing equipment. One, said Perrin, is balance unit and the second is a piece with multiple bars which people can do pull ups and push ups. Taylor added a couple of members of the park committee are on the town maintenance crew and they had stated there would be no issues maintaining the new equipment. As CAO Sandi Maschmayer pointed out the money is not coming from municipal funds at all, but rather from private grants. Council passed the motion to purchase the equipment. Playground equipment safety a concern The second issue council had to deal with was whether to pull the play-
ground equipment out of Campbell Park playground because of its condition. The Parks Planning Committee recommended that. The playground equipment is 38-yearsold and few upgrades have been done over the years. In addition, they reported while the parks and recreation department has been maintaining the playground, it was felt there was a safety issue. In addition, it was noted the park does not have a lot of children playing in it because it’s close the elementary school. The committees was recommending removing the equipment and later provide a smaller playground structure in a future budget. Councillor Doug Pewarchuk took exception to the statement it was little used. “I know there’s children who live in close proximity to that park that do use it,” he said. “I’m a little concerned about removing it. Is it in such bad shape we can’t leave it there until we can replace it?” He said it would be

bad optics on the part of the town if the equipment was just removed and not replaced. He wanted to know if there were any studies stating it wasn’t used or that the equipment was unsafe. “I don’t think we should leave a barren sandy area there for the rest of the year.” Councillor Al Harvey reflected that a report had been done in 2016 stating the equipment was in poor shape and replacement parts weren’t available. “My question is whether we face a liability issues?” he asked. “Do we have a plan to replace the equipment? We could have a backlash if the equipment was removed and nothing replaced it.” Councillor Jody Foulds echoed Pewarchuk’s comments. “I live near the park.
It’s is used and I feel confident it’s used well.” “I like to see some more data on how bad the equipment is and whether it can’t be fixed or not.” Taylor stated he would put the replacement issue on the next parks committee agenda “A lot of these parks no longer meet playground standards,” he said. “When they start to become unsafe all the comments are valid concerns. “ He said staff had found some areas of the structure were broken and they have repaired them to the best of their abilities. CAO Sandi Maschmeyer told council she would provide them with the 2016 inspection report. In addition, Maschmeyer said she’d have a parks employee come and give answers at the
next council meeting. She added the standards for the park equipment keep changing. Pewarchuk felt there was little in a liability issue because when the report was issued repairs were done so the town had done due diligence on keeping the equipment safe. “If there’s a blatant safety issue then we should address it.” He added if council deferred the mater, they could visit the park to look at the equipment’s condition before making a final decision. Harvey made a motion to have the playground equipment inspected by a qualified inspector and a report given to council. If the equipment is found to be unsafe then administration should close the equipment as soon as possible. The motion was carried.

Opinion Lots of photo ops in Alberta, Mr. PM, to show that you understand the little people Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, AKA Mr. Dress-up, is missing the ecologically-friendly boat when it comes to Alberta’s oil and gas industry. Even if he doesn’t recognize or care how it effects the Canadian economy, then how about just for the photo opportunities? Consider the possibilities. Imagine what dressing in rig hand attire would do to counter his soft, sensitive image? Working men would finally realize that he is just “one of us.” He might even be able to put a macho scare into US Alpha President Trump if he were to be seen in a hard hat and cover-alls, perhaps with the sleeves cut out and biceps casually flexed. I can’t begin to sense the country’s united pride in seeing our Prime Minister pictured in a scary green tactical hood, eyes cut out of course so you can see Mr. Trudeau’s recently dyed eyelashes. Or, better yet, he could be photographed in a winter trapper hat with faux fur painted lovely rainbow colours so that nobody thinks an animal might have been hurt in the making of human working garb. Can’t you just close your eyes and visualize our PM standing in front of a few roughnecks who are actually working on a drilling rig? He could dab some grease on his hands and cheeks and be dressed in rig gear complete with pre-scuffed steel-toed boots, just like he was actually helping out. Oh, what a rugged man he would appear to be to the electoral base, previously fearful that he was being flattened by the Trumpian steamroller. Even Alberta Premier Rachel Notley took the opportunity to assimilate with the common folk of Alberta a couple of years ago when she donned safety apparel like a visibility vest, glasses, radio headset and a hard hat with her name on it for some photo ops. Okay, she had the hard hat on backwards, but hey, she recognized the opportunity and went with it. Her urban base probably didn’t notice anyway. The Prime Minister knows that dressing up like the natives can gain trust with the people in Canada, but also in Saudi Arabia, India and the like. I think it is now time for him to show that he loves and relates to Albertans too. It wouldn’t hurt to rent a step-up pick-up truck with a lift kit and knobby tires, waving a cowboy hat as he entered Fort McMurray, smiling through whitened capped teeth. Indeed, he’d be just like us. Kerry Anderson

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Why Feminism is not Anti-Men When I read Phillip Carl Salzman’s article on feminism in the paper last week, I was amazed by his bold and chauvinistic argument. His letter to the editor proposed the idea that contemporary feminism “support[s] the rejection of fairness, truth and justice.” Salzman even went as far as stating that this “feminist war… is against all men,” and that “the object is to degrade and demote men, and replace them with females.” Naturally, as someone who considers herself a feminist, I had to laugh at how outrageous this proposition is. Salzman supported this argument with four cases in which men have been condemned for sexual harassment or assault without “evidence and substantiation being presented to support the accusations.” He blames femi-
nism, suggesting that women are falsely accusing men of these crimes, and getting away with it. While I don’t intend to debate his evidence, I would like to point out that “sexual assault is one of the most under-reported crimes,” (Statistics Canada 2017) and that women are “over six times more likely to be sexually assaulted than men.” Unfortunately, Salzman’s article is just another example of the rape culture that “blame[s] victims of sexual assault and normalize[s] male sexual violence,” (WAVAW Rape Crisis Centre) and is prevalent in our society. Perhaps, instead of assuming these women are liars, Salzman should consider that his evidence is more likely due to a failing justice system than
to the feminist movement. With that being said, I would like to remind Phillip Carl Salzman that he is, in fact, a man. In being a man, he has been given privileges, both physical and societal, that women do not have. Evidently, he does not realize this, which isn’t surprising; the inequality between genders is an age-old one and is embedded so thoroughly into society that it often goes overlooked. This inequality is definitely real, however. There’s the wage gap between genders, the “pink tax” that renders female products more expensive than males, and even language; commonly, phrases like being “girly” are used as an insult, which devalues the female gender, suggesting women are less than men.

From Where I Sit
HAZEL ANAKA A couple of weeks ago I received a phone call from the co-owner of an Edmonton business I’ve dealt with for more than fifteen years. Because I was in the throes of planning Babas & Borshch I was slightly miffed by the interruption even though it was a courtesy
Letter:
Not anti-men Continued from Page 4 Feminism has developed out of these inequalities. It is a movement for women to advocate not only for fair treatment, but equal status to men. Thus, you can understand my irritation when Salzman, obviously
call to advise me of a summer sale. I made small talk and told her about our house renovations and my festival work. I told her it wasn’t likely I’d make it in before the sale ended. Then she dropped a bombshell. She asked if I knew her twin brother and co-owner of the business was dead. “No. Oh my God, how, when, why?” I asked over and over again as I tried to wrap my head around this news. Now, to be clear this isn’t the first time I’ve gotten a call like this. There is no preparation possible. Shock, disbe-
oblivious to his own privilege, proposed that the feminist agenda is to “degrade and demote men.” As Shreya Kollipara points out, feminism isn’t “trying to climb onto a larger pedestal than the one a man is standing on. It’s simply trying to fit in on the same pedestal that he stands on.” Feminism isn’t anti-men. It’s fighting for a better world. Stephanie Taylor

lief, and denial rule. One immediately thinks about the last encounter with the deceased. I’m hit smack dab, again with the reality of the fragility of life. Within my mind, I debate, again whether a sudden death that devastates is better or worse than a long, lingering, slow death. I remind myself that we don’t usually get to make that choice for ourselves or others. You’ll soon understand why I’m not revealing any identifying information about this family or business. To my question of how, the sister revealed that, “we’re telling everyone that it was a heart attack but he killed himself.” They didn’t know he was upset or depressed or struggling. His wife
blurted out the truth to his parents. The mother is doubly devastated, the father has dementia. To my question of when, she said February. With guilt I remembered a voice mail from her months ago that I didn’t respond to. She reached out to me then. I was sick thinking about it. Was there an obituary in the Journal I asked? Somehow, despite being near daily readers of the paper, we missed that issue. I’d have been there, I said. The fact she and the rest of the staff would be explaining his absence from the business for months or years to come makes grieving harder I suspect. For his sister, I replayed our last conversation. Over the years he’d confided to me
about business pressures, the challenge of managing a large staff, being on buying trips and trying to guess what customers would love. He told me he loved fishing. ‘You’re the boss, I said. Tell everyone you’re taking some time off. Go fishing and tell me what you caught next time I see you.’ Sadly, there was no fishing trip and no next time. I loved his skill and

Driving Angel goes above and beyond the call of duty for seniors MAUREEN SULLIVAN It's the little things that matter, says Deanna Ruether who owns a business of the same name - "The Little Things," a transportation and advocacy business in Lamont County. Ruether provides transportation, accompaniment and support services for seniors and persons with special needs in Lamont County. Do you have a doctor’s appointment in Edmonton?, she will pick you up and take you, drop you off or accompany you to the appointment, wait for you to be done and return you home again. Clients wanting to go shopping or visiting, Ruether can provide transportation for that too. Families may hire her to spend time with isolated seniors to take them shopping or do small personal chores. "I become a security system, not only for my clients, but for their families who may not be close by. I have the flexibility to attend to my clients’ needs, big or small." "They become dear friends," she says of her clients. She will often pick up a client and take them out with her on her own errands, just so they can get out of the house. For one grateful family, she became a hero. Ruether noticed that a "dear friend" of one of her clients with dementia, was systematically emptying the client’s bank account. Ruether informed the client’s son, and together they were able to stop the theft and have the money returned. Clients, who have become close to Ruether, have even called her when they are ready to die. She then comes and sits with them at the end, so they are not alone. Ruether started The
Little Things, after retiring from working as a support worker in the schools. Before that she worked in physiotherapy. She lives in the country with her husband, and has four adult children and three grandchildren. She likes gardening and canning, often sharing her bounty with her clients. The cost of her service is comparable and often cheaper than calling for a taxi. It's $50 dollars for a taxi to come out here to take someone to Fort Saskatchewan. After the appointment or shopping, another taxi must be called and waited for. It then costs another $50 dollars to come back. For a comparable fee, Ruether will pick the client up, transport, wait or accompany her to the appointment or shop, and then transport them home again. In some cases the cost of the service may be picked up by Senior Benefits or AISH (Assured Income for the Severely Handicapped). Ruether said she realized a need for her business when serving on the Lamont County Rural Transportation Coalition. Then one day at a doctor’s appointment, she overheard a couple saying they wouldn't be going to a specialist appointment in Edmonton because they didn't have transportation. "I knew something needed to be done." At about the same time a couple who had been in a motor vehicle accident, called Ruether for help with housekeeping, transportation and groceries being picked up. That relationship evolved into a support, advocacy and friendship. It continued even as the couple’s health returned, and as word of mouth got around, “The Little Things" was born. "I have always been in the helping profession."
Ruether said. "I get great satisfaction out of helping people." Ruether’s client,
Margurite Baker, calls Deanna “her driving angel.” Deanna Ruether and Margurite Baker

Lamont fundraiser coming up JOHN MATHER A corn roast fundraiser is tentatively scheduled for Sept. 22 at the picnic pavilion at Hillside Park, Lamont council was told Aug. 28. The town parks planning committee reported at their June meeting, the Lions Club had held the corn roast in the past using corn purchased from the Hutterite Colony. Various methods of cooking the corn were discussed. The time of the event is currently scheduled from 11 to 3 p.m. Good Air Council received a report from the Fort Air Partnership stating the air quality in the area had been very good in the first half of the year. The partnership collects air quality data from seven monitoring stations in the Heartland area including one in
Bruderheim and one in Lamont County. Of the seven stations, those two had the lowest air quality the majority of the time. Of 26,677 monitored hours in the first half of 2018 only 28 hours reached a high risk category. The report stated those would have been caused by wintertime inversions. The second half results will show higher figures due to smoke from wildfires in B.C. Residents can monitor the air quality online and view live data at fortair.org. Meeting date change Because councillors will be at the Alberta Urban Municipalities convention in Red Deer in late September, the next council meeting will be changed from Sept. 25 to Sept. 24. Mayor Bill Skinner said
wants to find out if municipalities will still have the same opportunity to purchase sand and slat from the new contractor that will be maintaining the provincial highways, similar to the agreement the town had had with the previous contractor. Maschmeyer further
many of the councillors would be travelling to the convention on the 25th, and if the council meeting was held that night, they would be traveling afterwards which could be hazardous. The convention with its seminars and breakout sessions begins Sept. 26. CAO Sandi Maschmeyer told council there would be a meeting to discuss cannabis on Sept. 20. She said the information session would be similar to the one recently held in Bruderheim. She further asked for councillors’ questions to be brought to a meeting with Alberta Transportation, which will be held during the AUMA convention. She said questions would be forwarded on to the department so answers could be supplied at the convention. Councillor Al Harvey
reported the owner of the downtown building slated for demolition had missed the deadline. She said the town had put out contracts to have the demolition work done and they were currently waiting on a report to find out if there is asbestos in the building. She said once the
building is gone the lot will be landscaped to leave a clean lot. The work is scheduled to be completed by the end of Oct. Mayor Bill Skinner will be receiving a distinguished service award at the upcoming AUMA convention for his years of community service.
School bus drivers were out at the Lamont Recreation Centre parking lot getting ready for the upcoming year on Thursday, Aug. 30. They were reviewing bus safety, basic engine repair, and how to use the wheelchair lift. Drivers are looking forward to the new school year.

Lamont County Food Bank launches Fall Haul Challenge; shelves getting bare MAUREEN SULLIVAN The first ever Fall Haul Challenge for the County of Lamont Food Bank, where you can challenge competitors to top your donation, began on Sept. 4 and goes until Oct. 4. A running tally can be seen on the Food Bank's website or on the Food Bank's Facebook page. There will be a winner declared for highest monetary donation and another for highest
EIPS acclaims Chair JOHN MATHER Trina Boymook has been acclaimed as board chair for the Elk Island Public Schools for the 2018-19 school year. In addition, Heather Wall was elected by acclamation as vice chair. Boymook was first elected as a trustee representing Sherwood Park in 2013. This is Boymook’s sixth term as chair of the board. “I’m honoured to be re-elected and want to thank my fellow trustees for their support as we begin a new year,” said Boymook. “Over the coming year, we’ll continue our work on enhancing public education and student learning environments with a focus on promoting growth and success for all students within.” Wall was first elected to the Elk Island Board representing Fort Saskatchewan in 2013. This will be her second term as vice chair. “I’m excited about the year ahead,” she said. “It promises to be an interesting one with new opportunities and new challenges as we carry on our work to ensure high-quality education for our students.” EIPS has a nine-member board representing approximately 17,500 students and their families.
weight of food donated. The food bank is in need of support all year, but with kids returning to school a need for snacks, juice boxes and lunch makings are particularly high. "Over the summer we experience a drop in donations," says Jody Zachoda from the food bank. "In the fall people are sending their kids back to school and with that
comes school supplies and school fees, so families may be struggling with extra expenses they didn't have over the summer, or they could be experiencing financial difficulty because they've had to pay more for childcare while school is out. People tend to give more donations around the Christmas season and then it steadily declines from there so by fall we
are usually in need of more stock." Currently the food bank is short on the basics they use in every hamper: for example pork and beans, chunky soup, Mr. Noodles, canned tomatoes and canned vegetables. The Fall Haul is a way for the community to get involved with filling the shelves of the food bank. Any business can join the Fall Haul and challenge
their competition to a friendly rivalry for victory. "We need more involvement from community members when it comes to collecting donations," says Zachoda. " We hope that this will grow and become a county-wide source of pride as the different businesses and municipal governments work toward earning bragging rights as a top donor
each year." You can contact your town and village office or your county counsellor and ask them how you can help them win the challenge. Donations can be dropped off on Thursdays between 11am - 1pm at the Lamont Alliance Church, 5007 44 Street, Lamont, AB.

Terry Fox Run, Sept. 16 MAUREEN SULLIVAN The Terry Fox Run is just around the corner for the Town of Lamont. The annual run is on Sunday, Sept. 16, 2018. Running since 1988, the local run has raised over $240,000 to date, for cancer research. There will be 2 kms, 5 kms and 10 kms runs and bike routes. Registration is at 12 pm in the Lamont Meeting
Room, and the run starts at 1pm. Free BBQ with beef patties and smokies, other food and beverages will be served at 2 pm. Door prizes will be given (in the past year every participant received a prize). Sponsor sheets can be printed from the Terry Fox website www.terryfox.org, to start collecting donations to day.
Donations can be sent through the same site. Curt Malica, this years organizer said, "the town, businesses and people of Lamont have been very generous and have been strong supporters of the run for three decades now." Councillor Dave Taylor reported on the upcoming Terry Fox run, during the regular council meeting Aug. 28. He
told council the organizers had asked if council would declare the day as Terry Fox Day in Lamont. CAO Sandi Maschmeyer told council that the town rarely recognizes the events as official days. "We certainly support their efforts," said Mayor Bill Skinner, "But we get so many requests like this we can't recognize them all." To find out more information you can check out the Lamont Terry Fox Facebook page, or contact Curt at 780-8193958 or email malica@telus.net.
Spider-man Jason Clevatt and his tarantula, part of the Canadian Reptile Encounter show, were out at the Metro Kalyn Community Library in Bruderheim on Aug. 30. Jason has a childhood passion for reptiles and amphibians and entertains and educates others. These two young boys seem uncertain if they want to get too close to the arachnid.
