Electricity bills to show slight monthly increase next year By Treena Mielke Rimbey residents will notice a small increase in their electricity bills next year. At its regular meeting Monday, council agreed to increase the FortisAlberta Inc. franchise fee from seven to 14 per cent for the 2015 calendar year.

CAO Lucien Cloutier said the increase will amount to about a $4 a month increase or $50 more per year. “We intend to use the extra money for capital projects,’’ he said. “We are still well below the maximum that can be approved.” The municipal franchise fee cap is 20 per cent. A municipality who wishes to ex-

ceed this franchise fee will need to advertise in the local paper for two weeks and acquire commission approval. Mayor Rick Pankiw said the franchise fee has been at seven per cent since at least 2006 and council was in favour of an increase. “The increase allows us to tap into an-

other market for revenue,” he said. The estimated revenue from the increase is $226,825 compared to $106,586 which was raised through the seven per cent franchise fee. Franchise fees can be changed annually but written notice must be provided to FortisAlberta.

The Rimbey Review, Sept. 30, 2014 3

Rimbey RCMP kept busy investigating close to 50 files this week Rimbey RCMP detachment investigated 48 files this week. Highlights include domestic assault, missing persons, break and enter, theft, impaired driving, drugs, and other serious matters. Thieves steal generator Sometime between September 18 and 20, unknown culprit(s) broke into a residence located near Blindman Hall on Iola Road. The thieves stole a generator from the property as well as causing property damage. Police are currently investigating the case, examining all possible evidence and leads at this time. Permission needed A brash young man with no consideration of others was driving his ATV on a farmer’s land without permission. When the landowner approached the individual to ask him to leave he was told where to go - and that wasn’t to the police. The farmer called the RCMP and the 25-year-old man from Sylvan Lake was charged accordingly. There is plenty of Crown land around, please respect the rights of property owners and seek permission first before you enter any private property on foot or otherwise. Frustrated elk hunter Police were called in the early morning hours of September 25 after an oil lease operator located a small Hyundai car in the west country that had been at a site for two days. Police began an investigation into the suspicious vehicle and located the owner after a hasty search of the area. The man, a resident of Calgary, had been out elk hunting and had just parked his car there while he was out seeking his prey in the woods. The frustrated would-be hunter was upset at his lack of success and blamed the weather, the noisy leaves and the current population of critters in our area. He stated that the “elders” in the city told him there were elk out here to be had.... I want to know if the elders gave him any idea how big an elk really is... was he planning on putting it in the trunk? Rimbey mounties help out On September 23, at approximately 2 p.m., Mounties in Rimbey received a call for assistance from Ponoka Detachment who were responding to an alleged robbery that took place at a business near Highway 2 and Highway 53. While officers from Ponoka responded to the scene to ascertain what had happened and to gather evidence, officers from Rimbey headed east on High-

Hotdogs and refreshments will be served and the firemen will be on hand to chat. The theme of this year’s fire prevention week is Smoke Alarms Save Lives. Smoke alarms should be tested every month.

way 53 in case the bandits fled in our direction. The suspect vehicle was observed speeding towards a Rimbey officer near 5th Meridian Road on Highway 53. When the responding officer turned on his emergency lights the culprits sped south on the 5th Meridian Road and then east back into Ponoka Detachment’s area. It was later found that the criminals had stolen a stereo from a vehicle located in a parking area and a robbery had not taken place. Officers from Ponoka detachment are following up on all leads at this time. Officer grateful for honesty After serving in the far reaches of this fine country for so many years, I may have seen the worst in some people...but also the best. In all my years of carrying a badge I have never lost it...until this week. While hiking in the scenic Banff area on the weekend, I must have been totally distracted by the amazing fall colours and dropped my wallet along a trail. Tourists from all parts of the globe had the same idea as I did and the trails were packed with sightseers. I was sick to my stomach. Now what? I back tracked and searched to no avail. Just for the sake of saying I tried, I inquired at the closest building in the area to see if anyone happened to turn it in... viola! There it was. Not only did they turn it in... it had all the money in it too! My heartfelt thanks goes out to the kind, honest person who turned it in. We all have moments when we are discouraged

by all the negative things going on all around us.... thankfully, there are many wonderful things as well! In Rimbey, there are many honest folks that turn in found property throughout the year. Detachment personnel are not always able to determine who the rightful owner is so if you have lost any property, please contact the detachment in the event we have it here just waiting for you to have it back! Terry Fox Run success Police assisted Rimbey Elementary School with the Terry Fox Run which was a huge success again this year. We are so blessed to live in a community that

cares so much about these great causes. Kids ran, walked and even skipped for over two hours! Thank you motorists for taking extra care on our streets to ensure all our children make it home safely each and every day. If you have any information regarding these or any other crimes, please call the local Rimbey RCMP Detachment at (403) 843-2224 or Crime Stoppers: PHONE: 1-800-222-8477 #8477 on Telus Mobility *8477 on Rogers AT&T Crime Stoppers is a community program that does work!

But still I showed up, taking pictures, entire basement is pretty much a shrine to watching, even cheering for the home the Calgary Flames. “Thanks, but chances of you even team before remembering I was supgetting drawn are like finding a needle in posed to be impartial.

Some went on to skate in bigger arenas; arenas sometimes uses on me.

where the lights were much brighter, the fans much louder and the stakes much higher. I was proud of them all, and experienced a most memorable highpoint of my career, when I interviewed a young man by the name of Derek Morris the year he was first round draft pick of the Calgary Flames. Derek definitely made front row headlines in our local paper and in our hearts that year. When the ticket list came out as to who had been drawn to go the big Kraft Hockeyville game, I checked and rechecked to see if my name or my husband’s name was on there, so I could prove my son wrong. Neither name was there. But then my husband phoned me and said, “guess what, I got drawn for that game.” I figured I was wrong, his name was there, I just couldn’t see it, sort of like

when I can’t see my glasses, but there they are right in front of me. We spent about an hour in misplaced euphoria, before we realized his name was drawn for the practice, not the game. Upon that discovery, we remained euphoric, but slightly less so. Since that time, I’ve heard all about it. How Jackson got a puck which was tossed over the boards. How he didn’t get a hockey stick, though the kid right next to him did. How incredibly good the players were. How they had the best seats right at the front. I heard all about it and I was happy, not only for one grandpa who got to sit with his grandson and watch the big leagues play, but for the whole community. Kraft hockeyville was a well-deserved win, but, realistically, it didn’t launch Sylvan Lake into the big leagues. The town was there already!

Two New “Islamic States” being created By Gwynne Dyer A coalition of imams and organisations representing British Muslims has written Prime Minister David Cameron asking him to stop using the phrase “Islamic State”when talking about the new country carved out of Iraq and Syria by Islamist terrorists. That’s what Abu Baqr al Baghdadi, who has proclaimed himself “the caliph of all Muslims and the prince of the believers,” calls his newly conquered territory, but it’s giving ordinary Muslims a bad name. The British Muslim leaders declared that “the media, civic society and governments should refuse to legitimise these ludicrous caliphate fantasies by accepting or propagating this name. We propose that “UnIslamic State” (UIS) could be an accurate and fair alternate name to describe this group and its agenda – and we will begin to call it that.” Good luck with that. But meanwhile two more “UnIslamic States” are being created right now, on Libyan and Nigerian territory: same black flags, same fanaticism and cruelty, even the same ski masks. (It’s a fashion statement.) The city of Maiduguri, the capital of Borno state in northeastern Nigeria, has more than two million people. It is surrounded by the forces of Boko Haram – the name roughly translates as “Western education is forbidden” – and most of the rest of Borno has already fallen under their rule. In fact, the whole north-

Gwynne Dyer Guest Columnist

eastern corner of Nigeria is passing out of the government’s control. “At this very moment,” Alhaji Baba Ahmad Jidda, the secretary to the Borno state government, told The Independent newspaper last week, “most parts of Borno state are being occupied by Boko Haram insurgents. Government presence and administration is minimal, with economic, commercial and social services totally subdued. Schools and clinics remain closed.” Boko Haram’s ultimate goal was the imposition of an Islamic state in Nigeria ever since it began active operations in 2009. It was in touch with al-Qaeda from the start, and later with the jihadi groups in Syria that subsequently turned into ISIS (the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) and finally into the “Islamic State” that now spans those two countries. Only the northern half of Nigeria’s population is Muslim, so that was where Boko Haram’s murders and abductions were concentrated, although it also carried out terrorist bombings in the Christian parts of the country. 3,600 people were killed in these attacks in the four years to 2013, but then there was a major acceleration: 2,000 more people have

been killed in just the first half of this year. From about mid-July, Boko Haram’s leader Abubakar Shekau also changed tactics: instead of hit-and-run raids, he started to take and hold territory. In August, after his fighters captured the town of Gwoza in Borno, he released a video declaring that the area was “now part of the Islamic Caliphate.” He now rules over about three million people in northeastern Nigeria and neighbouring Cameroon. The Nigerian army rarely stands up to Boko Haram’s fighters. Like the Iraqi army, which ran from far smaller numbers of ISIS troops, it is corrupt and badly equipped, but it is also deeply penetrated by Boko Haram sympathisers: last June fifteen senior military officers were found guilty by court martial of passing arms and information to Boko Haram. So Abubakar Shekau may end up ruling much of northern Nigeria. Libya is considerably further down the same track. A civil war broke out between the various militias left over from the 2011 campaign to overthrow Muammar Gaddafi, the former dictator, shortly after the June election that might – just might – have produced a government that would try to disarm those militias. It has got so bad that almost a third of the Libya’s population, 1.8 million people, has fled the country, mostly seeking shelter in Tunisia.

The real divisions between these warring militias are regional and tribal, but a number of them have adopted extreme Islamist ideologies, partly because it guarantees a flow of arms and money from certain governments in the Gulf. These Islamist militias have emerged as the winners both in the savage fighting in western Libya around the capital, Tripoli, and also in the other major city, Benghazi, in the east. In fact, Islamist militias with ISISstyle ideologies now control every city along the Libyan coast except Tobruk, a short distance from the Egyptian border. That is where the new parliament elected in June has taken refuge, and the parliament’s members are living on a hired Greek car ferry that is serving as a floating hotel. The front line starts just west of town – and the next town along the coast, Derna, has been declared an Islamic caliphate. A lot of this is just ideological fashion, of course. The various “caliphates” are in touch with one another, after a fashion, but there is no master plan. However, the results are truly nasty both in Nigeria and in Libya – and the risk of over-reaction by those who feel threatened by these developments, especially in the West, is quite large. Gwynne Dyer is an independent journalist whose articles are published in 45 countries.

His draft report states the first order of business to get the sustainability strategy off the ground is to form an advisory committee. Continued on Page 15

Money for downtown improvements can be accessed from a number of sources, the CAO said. Provincial/federal/ corporate grant programs, local improvement levies or increasing the municipal tax rate will produce added revenue. Direct allocation within the capital budget with monies taken from reserves, corporate sponsorship or support from community groups are other means of accessing dollars. Cloutier noted grant incentives are available. These incentives can include improvements to the exterior of existing buildings including the standardization of facades, awnings and building signage. They can also include renovation of existing vacant buildings to accommodate new businesses and the development of vacant lots for new buildings.

Exploring the feasibility of developing a downtown Rimbey website and carrying out a rebranding activity for Rimbey are other suggestions included in the report. “While such an activity addresses a need for Rimbey as a whole, downtown, as a significant community stakeholder, stands to benefit from the results of this process,” Cloutier said. Corporate rebranding can take the form of adopting a new town logo and, potentially a new tagline which provides a message.

“Who are we?” What message do we wish to convey about ourselves? For example, are we ‘a community for all ages,” or are ‘we in the heart of industry’ or are we ‘fun and family friendly’? “A tagline provides a message about what we stand for and what we value. Such messaging can have an impact on downtown sustainability.” Mayor Rick Pankiw said Lucien Cloutier was asked to develop the downtown sustainability strategy when he was hired as CAO. “It is a plan to help Rimbey move forward,’ he said.

CAEP labour force development specialist speaks at Chamber meeting By Treena Mielke Employers attending a Rimbey Chamber of Commerce meeting last week were encouraged to tap into talent pools which are now being under utilized when they are looking for new employees. Kendall Currie, CAEP labour force development specialist who spoke at the chamber meeting held Monday at the Best Western Hotel said employers need to look at ways to attract and retain employees as jobs are plentiful in Alberta. “There is plenty of work out there and those under represented segment of the population need to be encouraged to join the work force.” Currie noted that the unemployment rate was at 2.8 per cent in July Red Deer which is reflective of the rest of Central Alberta. She said the situation is predicted to get worse and by 2023 Alberta could be short about 100,000 workers. To help compensate for the shortage of workers, Currie suggested that employers think outside the box and tap into a wealth of available talent

reserves thus creating, what has the potential to be, a win/win situation. She said hiring First Nations people and new Canadians are options to consider. Dealing with different cultures should not be a drawback, but a challenge which can be overcome, she noted. “We went to the moon, surely we can all lean to work together. There is a huge talent pool there,” she added. Hiring youth workers is another great, but often under utilized, source of employment, she said. “I have heard over and over again that youth have no work ethic, but as a kid’s first employee, you have a responsibility to teach them work

ethics. Are you engaging with them where they are; in the schools and/or on social media (the youth) because they are not going to engage with you? I’m a big believer in getting out and talking to them.” Hiring workers with disabilities is another choice, Currie said, explaining that these workers can help with some of the tasks that the other employees may not have time for. Melvin Durand, who owns Parkland Automotive Repair Service said small businesses cannot afford to

INVEST FOR A CHANCE TO

WIN

AUC denies Albertans The Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) ruled on Monday against petitioners, and decided against having an oral (open) hearing into the proposed sale of AltaLink to Berkshire Hathaway. The opportunity for the public to have evidence crossedexamined in an open and transparent manner will now not happen! The AUC’s decision is a tremendous injustice to the ratepayers of Alberta. Albertans will be directly impacted by this sale, and contrary to statements made by AltaLink executives, Albertans will pay for this sale via increased charges on every utility bill. If the sale of AltaLink is approved under the current process, Albertans can expect to see increased charges on every utility bill to pay for this overpriced sale. Just how much utility bills will rise is not known, but it is known that the public will pay. Had the AUC ruled to hold an open and transparent hearing, Albertans might have had an opportunity to learn just how much this sale will cost.

Monthly meetings temporarily discontinued Dear Editor, The Bluffton and District Chamber of Commerce is an active community group. After completing a major community project in June , the members took some well earned time off. However we overlooked one small important item. We did not have the foresight to cancel the much appreciated , monthly meeting notice provided by the Rimbey Review. If this has caused any member of the community or the public an inconvenience, we wish to aplogize. Be assured that following an upcoming membership drive , the Bluffton and District Chamber will again be active , but for now , we would like to remove the monthly meeting notice and thank the Rimbey Review for their support. Irene Kurta- Lovell( treasurer) for Gail Cornell (President)

implement that suggestion. “I’m not saying it’s a bad idea. I’m just saying it works well in big business, but not so much in smaller businesses.” However, another businessman in attendance suggested the idea could work if it was scaled down to meet the needs of a small business.

MANN Peggy Mann of Bluffton, Alberta passed away peacefully at the Northcott Care Centre, Ponoka on Sunday, September 21, 2014 at the age of 90 years. Peggy Glanfield was born on July 8, 1924 at Winmarleigh, Lancashire, England. She moved to Canada with her parents and family in 1929, and settled in Erskine, Alberta where they lived until moving to Hoadley in 1935. The family took up the hard life of homesteading, and Peggy obtained her schooling in the Society School District where she formed some life-long friendships. She was united in marriage to Bob Mann in 1949, and together they raised their family on a farm in the Iola District where Peggy was an active and longterm member of the Iola Busy Beavers. The well-being of Peggy’s family was always uppermost in her mind and nothing gave her greater joy than her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren. Peggy lived a full life homesteading and farming. She loved all of God’s creatures and was deeply concerned about the safety of the planet that God has loaned to us. Peggy took pride in her garden and was well-known for her canning and home-baked bread. Her hobbies were sewing, reading, and writing. Peggy will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by her seven children: her sons, Robert (Carol) Mann of Bluffton; James Mann of Rimbey; and Roy (Brenda) Mann of Anzac, Alberta; and her daughters, Ada (John) Jacobs of Ponoka; Margaret (Rod) Katchorek of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan; Jean (Darryl) Hughes of Edmonton; and Laura Mann of Spruce Grove; as well as her six grandchildren: Steven (Lisa) Mann of Rimbey; David (Holly) Mann of Bluffton; Jacqueline (Darcy) Koch of Rimbey; Andrew and Emily Jacobs both of Ponoka; and Jayden Mann of Anzac; in addition to ten great grandchildren; and three great-great grandchildren. She also leaves to mourn her passing her brothers, Oliver (Marjorie) Glanfield of Fort Chipewyan, Alberta; and Brian (Joan) Glanfield of Enderby, B.C.; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives, and many friends. Peggy was predeceased by her father, Fred in 1943; her mother, Isabelle in 1955; her beloved husband, Bob in 1996; her baby son, Gordon Michael in 1956; her brother, Fred Glanfield in 2013; and two sisters, Ruth Rauchert in 1993 and Lucy Banks in 2002. A Public Funeral Service in Peggy’s Honour was held at the Hoadley Evangelical Missionary Church, Hoadley on Friday, September 26, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. with Pastor Steve Budd officiating. Interment followed in the Hoadley Cemetery, Hoadley. If friends desire, memorial tributes in Peggy’s Memory may be made directly to the Hoadley Cemetery, c/o R.R. #2, Bluffton, Alberta T0C 0M0; or to the Northcott Care Centre, 4209 - 48 Avenue, Ponoka, Alberta T4J 1P4.

reasons why you should advertise in your local newspaper

1.CREDIBILITY

Polls show people believe newspapers offers the most believable advertising. The offer is there to be read over and over again. It doesn’t intrude uninvited and then vanish.

2.ASSURANCE

Our newspaper circulations are verified and audited. Tearsheets verify that an ad ran as scheduled. Advertisers have tangible proof that their ad reaches their audience. Radio and TV can’t offer this tangible proof.

3. PERMANENCE Newspapers allow readers time. Hayley Shukin and Amanda Matthews check out the crowd during their graduation ceremonies. Treena Mielke Photos

Readers have the time to digest and consider an advertising offer at their leisure. Consumers need not be in the right place at the right time to see or hear the advertiser’s message. Studies prove that our papers are kept longer than a week and are read by more than one person in a household.

4. LOCAL COVERAGE Newspapers occupy a unique

position in reader’s lives. Newspapers contain news on local people and events, while providing the most reliable source of in depth local coverage of everything in your community, including what businesses are offering this week.

5. ECONOMY

Cost per thousand is very competitive, but the results of good newspaper advertising are the best measure of its benefit.

6. LOCAL INVESTMENT No other medium can compare to a newspapers continued service to the local community. An advertising order is an investment by the advertiser not only in their business but in the community.
