WHAT’S INSIDE
Tammy Hewitt News Advertiser
This intricate project took expertise and dedication from many people. A project to celebrate the RCMP centennial year which was suggested at first to be a horse, was later decided to be a Ukrainian Easter Egg. It was thought to be a ridiculous thought back in 1973 when this all started from the suggestion in the first meetings to the beginning of the plans to make this reality. It was laughed at in the committee meeting and even so when Ron Resch reached out to the computer engineers to start the computer design with comments like are you are serious??
Richard “Dick” Sites’ involvement with the conception of the egg came out of taking a break after graduating Computer Science from Stanford. He started with a research group that was connected to the University of Utah in which Ron Resch was working on the design of the egg. “I heard about it in about June 1975. It sounded interesting and since I had accumulated some vacation time, contacted Ron to volunteer to help with the assembly.”
Connecting the Past and Present of the Vegreville Pysanka
“I was fascinated that the entire 3D design had been done via computer programs. Resch posted notes on a wall with different egg outlines with the various curves that could be possible. He asked students and faculty to vote on what they thought the best shape would be.” This was the first time this had been done. Most computer shapes were made of straight lines unlike the oval Resch anticipated building. Once the chosen shape for the egg was decided upon, Resch was back at the computer fitting the computer curvature to reflect this design.
The next step was to bring this computer design into a physical form. Consisting of star patterns and equilateral triangles that to fit together to form the famous structure. When it came to the actual cutting of the shapes Sites was skeptical of the design “being perfect” since each piece had to fit so specifically.
“Ron did not appreciate my skepticism.”
When it came to building this detailed structure, each piece was individually numbered/ lettered to be in the appro-
priate place. Furthermore, the three triangles on each star had to be bent backward slightly. “There were no duplicates or way to make more on the fly so we used small wood pieces like a shallow rooftop to achieve the 1 – 7 degree angle needed.” There were score areas to know where it needed to be bent to fit properly. “Resch had the whole layout in his head so simply told us peons which stars to attach next. We did a dozen or so and then the town folk and equipment lifted it up and bolted it to the structure. The assembly was straightforward, but involved a lot sitting on the ground in the hot sun as the photographer gave one direction: Don’t look at the camera”.
“When the egg was assembled, Ron made a point of talking to the local high school, to instill pride and cut down on vandalism. I admired his foresight. I remember how kind the people were putting us up in their homes, feeding us and offering encouragement. They also offered admiration as the assembled egg took shape. I bought a real decorated Ukrainian Easter Egg before I left and kept it until it fell apart 10 years later.”
“I would like the people of Vegreville to continue to take pride in this great sculpture. It was a labour of love on everyone’s part. I especially appreciate the RCMP’s wisdom in supporting artworks to help celebrate its anniversary,” concluded Sites.

The Longest Ballot
Arthur Beaudette News Advertiser – Opinion
Somebody call Guinness. For better or worse, we are making history (again) in Canada with the longest ballot in a government election. On election day, Monday, August 18, 2025, voters in the Battle River–Crowfoot riding to the south of us will vote in a byelection for their Member of Parliament. When they do, they will have a choice of 209 candidates.
Interestingly, out of that long list of 209, only seven are affiliated with political parties. Even more interesting is the information you can view on the Elections Canada website where you will see that the official agent for the majority of the Independent candidates is one person; Tomas Szuchewycz.
Szuchewycz is spokesperson for the “Longest Ballot Committee,” an activist group once affiliated with the Rhinoceros Party who became known for flooding ballots with independent candidates in protest of Canada’s first-past-the-post voting system. You remember that. It’s the system that keeps power centered in the east and renders votes increasingly irrelevant the further west you go as elections are called often before votes even begin to get counted out west. It’s also the system that Trudeau vowed to get rid of before he realized it was the reason he won.
The movement feels there is a conflict of interest when politicians are in charge of and therefore can change the elections rules. They advocate for a permanent, independent and non-partisan
body to be in charge of election law. Technically this is what we have in Canada and it exists in many parts of the world to the extent that no political party manages the elections. Elections Canada operates independently and is responsible for the conduct of federal elections.
Elections Canada is independent in its administration of elections according to the existing laws. However, the laws themselves are created and can be changed by Parliament. A majority government has the power to pass amendments to the Canada Elections Act because they command a majority in the House of Commons. While there’s a tradition of seeking input from Elections Canada and other parties, ultimately, the governing party with a majority has the legislative power to alter election rules.
It is interesting, and many believe not a mere coincidence, that the first attempt at the record for longest ballot in history in 2019 targeted then Conservative leader Andrew Scheer’s riding of Regina—Qu’Appelle. Ultimately, only two candidates affiliated with the movement ended up on the ballot and nothing more was said. It is quite likely that the movement didn’t even raise an eyebrow.
However, the movement hit the headlines in 2022, 2023 and 2024, prompting changes to election laws as well as creating controversy. In those elections, the candidate count ranged from 18 to 91. On one hand, this is democracy at work. On the other hand it is seen as a subtle form of interference.
In April of 2025, the Longest Ballot Committee hit the big time with 91 candidates in Pierre Poilievre’s former riding of Carleton, which he’d held for more than 20 years. Following that loss, Conservative Damien Kurek, who won the April general election with 83 per cent of the vote stepped down at his first opportunity so that Poilievre could run in a by-election. This “ballot” will now have 209 candidates.
To address the issue, Elections Canada has opted for an “adapted ballot” which will feature a blank space on which electors can write the name of their preferred candidate. So no LONG ballot for the Longest Ballot Committed, but a short ballot and a long list of names.
Poilievre submitted an open letter to the House of Commons calling on the government to pass legislation to prevent similar actions, calling it a stunt and “a deliberate attempt to manipulate the rules.” That’s hard to argue.
One has to wonder if Szuchewycz has more of a bone to pick with the Conservatives than with the first-past-the-pole system. Why did he not flood the ballots of other parties in 2025 and do the same in Mark Carney’s riding or that of Jagmeet Singh’s?
It would not surprise me in the least if Tomas Szuchewycz was enrolled in an “activism” course somewhere. It is easier to stir up controversy rather than work toward a solution. With that in mind, if you are interested, you should look up Dual Member Proportional representation created in 2013 by Sean Graham. THAT is a real option for meaningful change.

Bruce Stampede Outlasts
Tammy Hewitt News Advertiser
On a weekend of warm weather with a measure of light rain at times, Bruce Stampede grounds came alive for their 111th Stampede on July 25- 27.
Campers started setting up for free camping on Friday as rodeo fans also gathered to enjoy the start of a fantastic weekend with ABRA Jackpot “Turn and Burn” as runners tried for the fastest time around the barrels. Announcers Tyson Pietsch and Dustin Edwards guided the crowd through the weekend as Ricky Ticky Wanchuk entertained from the arena and delighted the crowd.
The excitement continued on Saturday with a variety of concessions as the local rodeo with all kinds of shenanigans brought cheers from all who were there. Kids got involved with activities equivalent of the adult races such as wild pony, calf tying, pee wee barrel and stick horse races. The ridiculousness happened though with the mutton bustin’, calf scramble and a very excited greased pig run. That pig would not stop squealing until he was back in his trailer!
As the adults turn came up, there was the hilarity of the Bloomer race that was won in 27 sec by a second generation participant. Open cow races, wild cow milking and rescue teams showed off the skills of some true cowfolk. CPRA Slack continued on in the evening to prepare for the next day’s events.
For those who wanted fun outside the arena, there were kids’ activities of balloon animals, bouncy castles and a Horseshoe Tournament. A veteran in Horseshoes, Cal Beaudoin of Spruce Grove won the Horseshoes match. He holds the first place in Alberta and second in Canada. The River Jacks got people moving with their catchy tunes as
they played for a crowd at the Black Jack’s Saloon that night.
Sunday started with a colorful parade and a pancake breakfast that had a surprise guest, Pierre Poilievre flipping the jacks. Cowboy Church followed as the
excitement continued with Canada’s Oldest One Day Pro Rodeo that had a CF18 jet from Cold Lake do a fly over to start with a roar for the 10 different events of riders, ropers and racers as they competed for their prospective titles.

90 Years Ago – July 24, 1935
One hundred years ago the first steam whistle was applied to a locomotive, recounts F.J. Gemmell Smith in an article in the July issue of the Canadian National Railways Magazine. It displaced the steam trumpet which was in use on the Leicester-Swannington Railway. Earlier still the locomotive driver had to use a post horn like the old-time coachman. In 1832 a farmer driving his cart loaded with eggs to market, crossed the tracks of the Leicester-Swannington railway, disregarding the warning toots of the post horn, and the engine turned his cartload of eggs into a giant omelet. The incident caused a demand for a more audible warning signal. First came the steam trumpet and then the steam whistle as used today.

Oil Price Slump Threatens Canada’s Finances
Rashid Husain Syed Troy Media
Falling oil revenues could squeeze Alberta’s budget and the ripple effects will be felt across Canada
Falling oil prices are threatening to blow a hole in Canada’s finances, with Alberta facing the steepest losses. A global glut of crude, combined with economic jitters in the U.S. and China, is driving prices below the levels needed to balance Alberta’s budget— and the damage won’t stop there.
Last week, oil prices fell to a three-week low. Brent crude settled at US$68.44 a barrel, down 1.1 per cent, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate closed at US$65.16, down 1.3 per cent. For the week, Brent slipped one per cent and WTI three per cent, the lowest settlement levels since early July, according to Reuters.
The reasons are clear enough: oversupply, weak global demand, a strengthening U.S. dollar and geopolitical uncertainty. OPEC+ appears unwilling to cut output at its upcoming Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee (JMMC) meeting, with four anonymous delegates telling Reuters the group will likely hold the course on production. The JMMC, which meets every two months, can recommend changes to output policy but rarely moves without consensus from OPEC’s heavyweights.
Falling oil prices and revenues could squeeze Alberta’s budget and the ripple effects will be felt across Canada
Washington, meanwhile, is sending conflicting signals. In a rare shift, the U.S. is preparing to grant limited authorizations to oil companies with assets in Venezuela, starting with Chevron, U.S. media outlets reported. These permits would allow them to operate under restrictions and swap oil in global markets. At the same time, U.S. President Donald Trump has
floated a threat to impose 100 per cent tariffs on countries that buy Russian crude unless Moscow reaches a peace agreement with Ukraine. He originally gave Russia 50 days but said on July 28 during a joint appearance in Scotland with U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer that he intends to cut that timeline to just 10 to 12 days, according to the Financial Times.
Analysts are skeptical. His earlier threats against Venezuelan oil buyers, particularly China, achieved little, and a full ban on Russian crude could send shockwaves through the global economy.
Fernando Ferreira, director of geopolitical risk service at consultancy Rapidan Energy Group, warned that imposing tariffs could be disastrous: “If you’re willing to go with the nuclear option by removing 4.5 plus million barrels a day from the market, and you’re willing to cut off commercial ties with other countries because they’re importing Russian oil, you’re going to risk massive oil price spikes and a meltdown of the global economy.”
At the same time, other major producers are adding barrels. Iraq reported nearly 99 million barrels of crude exports in June, generating US$6.7 billion in revenue, according to Iraq’s state-run Oil Marketing Company. Iranian exports have also climbed, reaching more than 1.6 million barrels a day, the highest since 2018, the Tehran Times reported, with China as its main buyer under creative pricing and payment arrangements. Supplies, in short, are plentiful.
For Alberta, that’s bad news. Fraser Institute analyst Tegan Hill estimates in a recent report that every US$1 drop in the price of oil costs Alberta’s treasury about $750 million in lost revenue.
With prices already dipping below the $68 per bar-

rel assumption in the provincial budget, Premier Danielle Smith’s government is staring down a projected $5.2 billion deficit for 2025-26, according to Alberta’s most recent budget, with more red ink to follow over the next two years.
Alberta’s oil wealth has long been a pillar of Canada’s economy, not only funding provincial services but also contributing heavily to federal revenues through taxes and equalization. When Alberta’s revenues shrink, it isn’t just a provincial problem—the entire country feels the strain.
Shrinking oil revenues could force Alberta to cut spending on health care and education or raise taxes, with ripple effects on jobs, services and Canada’s overall growth. The province is once again reminded that its finances remain hostage to the boom-and-bust cycles of global energy markets.
There’s no quick fix. Oil markets are cyclical, and no government policy can insulate a resource-heavy economy from volatile global prices. But what’s clear is that Canada—and especially Alberta—is heading into rough fiscal waters.
Buckle up. The flight ahead could be bumpy.

Family Entertainment at Vegreville Country Fair
Rosanne Fortier News Correspondent
The Vegreville Agricultural Society (VAS) is deep in preparation for the upcoming Xtreme Kubota Country Fair. The VAS was established in 1903 and has been hosting the fair for its entire 122-year history. This year is no different, with the fair being held on August 6 –10. This event offers a range of attractions, including: parade, midway, grandstand shows, vendors, exhibits (including many local equipment dealerships), antique tractor pulls, modified tractor pulls, horse shows, chariot and chuckwagon races, as well as many kids’ attractions.
VAS President, Kris Klammer, explained that the focus is on maintaining the fair as an agriculture-based event that is able to draw visitors of all ages, regardless of their involvement in agriculture. Everything from antique tractor pulls to chuckwagon and chariot races to the exhibit hall, is designed to showcase the highlights of agriculture and bring everyone into this industry that we love. There is truly something for everyone! Klammer reflected on the fair’s ability to foster enjoy-

ment and community togetherness, stressing how the event is particularly exciting for children. “As a kid, I really liked the midway and the bench show at the Exhibit Hall. My grandmother was a huge contributor to the Exhibit Hall, where we would bring in a couple of vehicles’ worth of baking. I still bring a couple of things in, and my daughter does as well.”
Klammer went on to say that a relatively new event at the fair is the modified tractor pulls. The inaugural event was a success last year, so it is being expanded to a twoday event on August 8th and 9th. Klammer, who is also the coordinator of the modified and antique tractor pulls, wanted to express gratitude to Full Throttle Truck & Trailer Repair for returning as the main sponsor and outlined what is included in the event. The show ranges from the mini class, which includes everything from snowmobile or motorcycle engine-powered tractors for
the kids to blown tractors running on methanol. The show continues to ramp up with two and four-wheel drive classes, diesel smokers, semis, and even multiengine tractors. Horsepower is a guarantee!
After this, Founder and Coordinator of the MiniTractor Pulls, Daniel Beaudette, explained that this popular event gives children nine and under a chance to compete and is similar to the big tractor pulls. The children compete in their own age group and receive cash prizes for first, second, and third place in each age group. The pedal tractors are supplied by the agricultural dealers participating in the event, and each dealer supplies two volunteers to assist. Just seeing the children’s expressions on their faces as they attempt to pull the boat across the stage is so gratifying. It coincides very well with the theme of the country fair.”
Renowned Pysanka Celebrates Half-Century Mark

attendees.
There was a lineup of impressive live local dancers and music performers, which included the Vegreville Line Dance Club, Kristen Baldwin, Brandon Hachkowski, Ukrainian Tradition Band, Abygale Durie, and the Off Ramp Boys.
Additionally, attendees enjoyed a complimentary pancake breakfast, a Kid Zone with a bouncy structure, a Farmers’ Market, food trucks, and free glitter tattoos featuring the big egg.
The Coloured Party with Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 39 and Vegreville RCMP commenced the Opening Ceremonies where President of Vegreville and District Chamber of Commerce Eric Guilbault stated that in 1975, this remarkable monument was unveiled to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the Royal Canadian Mounted Policean organization whose legacy of service, integrity, and dedication to community safety has long been a cornerstone of Canadian identity. The Vegreville Pysanka was, and remains, a powerful symbol of peace, security, and cultural pride.
“On this golden anniversary, we honour those who brought the Pysanka to life, from its conception as a federal tribute to the RCMP, to the designers, engineers, and volunteers who turned a bold idea into a lasting legacy. We also honour the RCMP for their enduring role in shaping the fabric of our nation,” Guilbault said.
vane—but also as a symbol of unity, resilience, and the vibrant cultural fabric of our region.
“Over the years, the Pysanka has helped define Vegreville’s identity. It has welcomed more than 20,000 visitors annually, and stood as a powerful symbol of unity as the site for ceremonies to honour the resilience of Ukraine and to embrace newcomers who are now proudly making Vegreville their home.” Stubbs said.
Guilbault read Honourable MLA for Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville Jackie ArmstrongHomeniuk’s speech, who is also the Parliamentary Secretary for Settlement Services and Ukrainian Evacuees, which echoed the same ideas in their messages.
Mayor of Vegreville Tim MacPhee stressed that this iconic landmark is more than a cultural treasure; it is an economic driver for our community, with over 68,000 visitors last year alone.
Reeve of the County of Minburn, Roger Konieczny issued greetings that echoed similar facts and sentiments.
After this, Larisa Sembaliuk Cheladyn, the daughter of Paul Sembaliuk, who was the Pysanka designer, spoke about how the egg was constructed and a brief history of it.

Canoe Lake Evacuees Find Safe Harbor in Vegreville
ning activities to help fill their time as well as some local musicians sharing some talent. Otherwise evacuees have been out and about exploring the green spaces and parks of Vegreville to occupy time and get out of the hotel.
Tammy Hewitt News Advertiser
On the evening of July 18, approximately 120 of the 700 residents of the Canoe Lake Cree First Nation in Saskatchewan, arrived in Vegreville displaced due to fires continuing in their area. Canoe Lake nation is north of Meadow Lake and close to the Villages of Cole Bay and Jan’s Bay. One resident shared this is the group’s second evacuation this year with the first one in May of this year.
The evacuees have been able to stay at local hotels and meet together for the meals at the Vegreville Alliance Church for catered meals. Many of the evacuees have participated and come to share in the meal. It was said it was nice for many in their community to come together. For others that do not want to come to the church, family and representatives were seen packing up portions of supper to take back to the hotel making sure everyone is fed. Lunches provided were a bagged lunch style.
“It is different for us. It’s like a culture shock.” Says Glenna Iron as she talked
about their small community far away from the conveniences a town has to offer. She goes on to say, “We are thankful for a place to stay and a place to eat.”
Another displaced resident, Grace Iron goes on to explain that this has been difficult for many in the community as they are “bush people”. They are used to driving an hour and half to get groceries. Most are used to a quiet lifestyle.
Unfortunately, there was not enough space at hotels in Vegreville or area (including Sherwood Park and Fort Saskatchewan) for all of the evacuees to stay together. Her mother and father are staying in a hotel in Fort Saskatchewan. She tries to see them every day. For others keeping their children busy has been a challenge. Some have as many as eight children in their families. FCSS has also been involved in arranging in plan-

Gregory Michael
August 16, 1958 - July 12, 2025
On July 12, 2025 the world said goodbye to one of the good ones. From the day he took his first breath, to the moment he took his last, Greg Paranich lived his life with tenacity, tempered by the wisdom of contemplation and retrospect, in a way we can all aspire to. He faced the last stage of his life with characteristic acceptance and grace. Despite his illness, as a husband and a father, he took care to sew seeds of comfort and joy that would provide long after he was gone.
He married his best friend, with whom there have been uncountable hijinks, adventures, and challenges overcome. His wife, Faye, survives him with the passion for horsemanship and forty-two years of steadfast love. He raised his children, Colin and Harper, to try and try again, with the understanding that success was more about getting back in the saddle after you’ve been bucked off; and that a trophy is nice, but a chance taken has its own unfading shine. Greg leaves behind a set of navigational tools, with which his children can chart their own courses, on their own terms.
With a quick and clever smile, Greg treated every person on his path in the same selfless manner and expected nothing in return. He demonstrated humble courage in the kindness and compassion freely given to those around him. His legacy is one of connection, of fostering curiosity and passing goodwill forward. It will live on through those who had the great fortune to meet him. Greg Paranich was and still is a man who will always be in our hearts—to be there when we feel lost, frustrated or angry; to remind us that hope survives in a deep breath and one-more-step. Greg will be missed by many, but his memory will remain as he takes his final ride where the grass grows lush, green and stirrup high; where the water runs cool, clear and deep.
As a tribute to his memory, his family requests donation in lieu of flowers and gifts to the Red Deer Hospice Society (reddeerhospice.com). The loving care and compassion that they provided in the final stage of his life was exceptional.
A Gathering of Family and Friends will be held on August 9th, 2025 at 2 pm at the Blackfalds Community Centre, 4810 Womacks Road, Blackfalds. Interment at a later date to be determined.
Richard Robin (Ritchie)
September 9, 2001 – July 27, 2025
It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Richard “Ritchie” Dowling of Vegreville on Sunday, July 27, 2025, with his loving family by his side.

Ritchie was predeceased by his maternal grandparents Reg and Dorothy Tymchuk; paternal grandparents John and Margaret Dowling; step-papa Harry Guenther.
Ritchie was a happy and joyful person who had an infectious laugh and touched the lives of all those around him. He loved doors, balls, and bridges, and most of all he loved his family and friends deeply, and would squeal in delight when seeing them.
Cremation will take place. Celebration of Life will be announced at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to V.A.L.I.D.

Lamont County Bruderheim Fun in the Sun
On July 15, with music, laughter, and more than a few soaked shirts, the Second Annual Great Bruderheim Water Fight was a refreshing reminder of the joy that comes when a community comes together—especially on a hot Alberta afternoon.
Organized by the Town of Bruderheim and in partnership with the Kalyna Family Resource Network (KFRN), Lamont County Emergency Services (LCES), the event drew kids from across Lamont County to Bruderheim’s outdoor rink. The space was transformed into a wet and wild playground complete with a giant slip and slide, water guns, soaked sponges, water buckets, and the crowd favourite—blasts from emergency services fire hoses and water spray backpack pumps.
The water fight isn’t just about cooling down on a summer day. It’s also part of a larger effort to encourage relationships between municipalities and strengthen community bonds through shared events and experiences.
“The community came together for a much-needed splash of fun at the Great Bruderheim Water Fight—a kid-friendly event that turned the heat into laughter and soaked smiles,” said KFRN Lamont County Region’s Program Coordinator, Erin Ballance. “It was a great day of fun!”
Deputy Regional Chief Scott Calter was one of the LCES participants, stating, “Emergency Services had a blast soaking all the participants from the fire hose and other apparatuses. The kids had a great time and were really sneaky in splashing our crew as well!” LCES also had Lieutenant Jeffery Dul, Lieutenant Mario Cox, Firefighter Nathan Dul, Firefighter Paul Belcourt, and Jr. Firefighter Kyran Belcourt participating this year.
The event highlighted the power of collaboration. Bruderheim’s Communication and Community Services Coordinator, Natalie Quijano Acosta commented, “It is really good to work with our partners across Lamont County including KFRN and LCES. This
was a great and fun activity on such a warm day. Partners in our community work really well together and I look forward to the ice cream buffet event in August.”
Lamont County Community Services Manager, Sara Rindero emphasized the broader value of the event. “It is important to get out in the community and provide events across Lamont County, brining communities together, reducing isolation and promoting wellness for families in the region” she said. “Today’s water fight was a great partnership across municipalities in Lamont County and opens up options to do this again next year.”
As the soaked and smiling participants packed up their buckets and towels, one thing was clear: the Great Bruderheim Water Fight is fast becoming a summer tradition worth repeating.
Mindful Movement for Everyone
Man Seeking a Female Relationship

Promoting fitness for all levels and budgets the Vegreville Aquatic and Fitness Centre has been holding some free outdoor programs this summer to encourage getting outside, being more active and connecting with other people. Molly Grant, Vegreville Recreation Programmer explains, “Summer time is a great opportunity to utilize our green-spaces and parks. Outdoor recreation is a great way to bring both accessibility and community together.”
A few new programs that are free have emerged this summer, Running Club and Lunch Flex. There is an established walking group that meets at the library Tuesdays and Thursdays for a small fee but there was not an organized running club. The club came out of desire of local running enthusiasts to join with others. Grant goes on to say, “There’s been running groups in the past, private friends getting together and a lot of solo runners. I think it would be better to open doors to everybody in the community then they can run together, encourage and inspire each other.” She goes on to share that there was a participant who does a weights based workout and was not sure what their pace would be like. This person ended up being a pacer for the group that day. She goes on to emphasis that it is not just for seasoned runners, “Space for everybody, every pace, every ability. Walkers are welcome.” When the group meets, they all sign in and out again when they are back so if participants are at a different pace, they are being monitored. “We run as a group. If we notice
that someone is not with us or has not signed out we will loop back to check in. There is also a partnership with the Vegreville Fire Services to provide first aid, the pace and morale as they use this as part of their own training regime.” The group has various ages participating that are from 20 – 50 years of age.
The Recreation Department at the aquatic centre is also looking to work with the town to “get people more active and healthy” says Grant. Sometimes this is more about not being isolated and connecting more with others. By connecting with others and matching their pace, it helps participants to find balance either with accountability to be active or to not push themselves beyond their limits. “Personally, I run solo with my headphones in and push myself really hard, not listening to my body. If I’m with other people, I am more aware. It is not just about accountability, it has a mental health piece of being mindful. Nowadays, everyone’s on their phones. We are disconnected with ourselves and others.” On that note, one can come enjoy a more relaxed movement session outdoors on Tuesdays and Thursdays called Lunch Flex. Approaching the lawn of the aquatic centre, soothing music graces your ears as Grant leads participants in stretches and some strengthening exercises. There is deep breathing and a gratefulness portion which focuses on the body’s capacity that day which is incorporated into the session. The focus is to come away with less stress and stiffness. Grant shared that even though numbers have been lower due to summer schedules, sometimes this is better because people take time to check in with each other before and after workout sessions.
My name is Dennis, a 73-year-old man on a heartfelt search for a lasting connection filled with trust, companionship, and love. I am looking for a life partner and a best friend to share the remainder of my years with. Life is meant to be lived to the fullest, hand in hand with someone special. If you are interested in joining me on this journey, please contact me at oceandeep173@gmail.com to share more about yourself. I am open to connecting with someone aged between 55 and 78.

Canadian Tire’s Jumpstart program launched in 2005 and celebrated its 20th Anniversary in July.
Grant Ranger and his wife, Ashley Baye Ranger, are Co-owners of the Canadian Tire Branch in Vegreville.
Ranger explained that this program is about helping to finance low-income families with children from four to 18 years of age to access sports and recreational activities. “It is also to help accessibility for children who have accessibil-
ity barriers. So, they will design specific parts for children in wheelchairs, or things on those lines as well.”
Ranger went on to say Jumpstart Chapter helps wherever it is needed. This could be the cost of registration, equipment, and transportation to participate in sports.
Their side as dealers in the community is that they do fundraising events throughout the year. “The cool thing is that wherever the funds are raised, they get disbursed within that city. Any donation they make in Vegreville, stays and supports Vegreville’s chil-
In 2024, the local branch (Vegreville Chapter) helped over 40 youths and gave out $11,000 in financial aid.
Throughout 20 years, Jumpstart assisted 835 children in Vegreville and generated $13,617 in assistance.”
Grant expressed that he and his wife, before Canadian Tire were involved with Sport Chek and were in multiple events with children where they saw the impacts this has. “We got to see their excitement, whether it was them coming in and shopping for hockey gear or equipment for events.
