Good news for seniors, bad news for funding for bridge program By Treena Mielke For Ponoka County Reeve Paul McLauchlin, Premier Jim Prentice’s talk at the AAMDC convention held last week in Edmonton was a mix of good news and bad news. McLauchlin said he was pleased to hear the premier announce that the government has earmarked $40 million a year for the next five years to go towards enhancing seniors’ safety. “That is good news,” he said. “It sounds

like they are making a bigger commitment than which was originally announced. They will assess all the lodges presently to determine priorities and needs,” he said. However, Prentice also delivered some bad news during his presentation which will have a huge impact on Ponoka County. “The bridge program will no longer be funded,” said McLauchlin, adding the government is not going to eliminate the program, but it will no longer be funded. The Reeve said that is definitely not

good news for the county which has 220 bridges within its jurisdiction, 160 of which may need to be replaced within the next 10 years. “That means the funding will have to come right out of our own pockets and it is funding that we didn’t anticipate spending on bridges.” McLauchlin said the premier gave the low price of oil as the driving force behind the government’s shrinking funds. The AAMDC is an excellent opportu-

nity for meeting with other county representatives throughout the province, said McLauchlin. This year, the county invited two Ponoka town councillors to attend the convention and last year two Rimbey town councillors attended. McLauchlin said inviting the urban counterparts has proved to be a popular concept and one that may be adopted by other counties.

Local educators participate in education leadership mission to China Submitted

The Chinese Ministry of Education recently invited representatives from Alberta to participate in an Education Leadership Mission in China from November 9-17. A total of 20 school superintendents and principals representing five school divisions from across the province travelled to China, including four delegates from Wolf Creek Public Schools. Wolf Creek delegates included superintendent Dr. Larry Jacobs, assistant superintendent Amber Hester, principal Tim Lekas from Rimbey Jr/Sr High School and principal Lane Moore from Bentley School. The purpose of the delegation was to initiate a reciprocal exchange program to allow leaders from China and Alberta opportunity to explore education transformation, exchange ideas, deepen mutual understanding and promote exchanges and cooperation on leadership capacity building, curriculum building, teacher training, examination reforms and other issues related to education transformation. The first half of the visit took place in Guangzhou, a city of 17 million people in southern China. This began with a meeting with senior government officials, to discuss how our province is moving ahead with Inspiring Education. The Wolf Creek portion of the Alberta Wolf Creek delegates to China included superintendent Dr. Larry Japresentation was on the topic of high perform- cobs, assistant superintendent Amber Hester, principal Tim Lekas ing schools.

The Christmas tree is up, lights twinkling, all bright and lovely in the bay window of my living room. The lace curtains, which aren’t really curtains at all, but lengths of lace bought cheaply by me at IKEA about 100 years ago, are Treena Mielke gone, replaced by reOn The Other Side ally good, expensive window coverings that amaze people, me included. The tired dirty blue rug in the living room has been torn up and gone to a place where such tired, dirty blue rugs go, never to be seen again. In its place is my new floor made of veneer or something, all shiny, new and clean and hardly walked on at all, and definitely not urinated on by a misbehaving puppy. And I am proud and happy and pretty sure I didn’t spend too much because of the deal I got. Well, the guy said it was a deal and who am I to judge. I am sitting at the piano, on my brand new piano bench, which has been a work in progress work thing in the garage for several months. I am dressed simply, but nicely, playing Christmas carols effortlessly and my fingers glide over the keys like I know what I’m doing and all my latent musical talent is bursting forth sort of naturally, like it is supposed to. I have the old coal oil lamp, the one that apparently belonged to my mom lit, and it casts a really cool glow over me and the piano bench and the new floor and the tree and it is all good. Okay, so none of the above has really happened and, who knows, some of it may never happen, but in his book, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, Stephen Covey says, “begin with the end in mind.” And, so there you go! I’m beginning, at least. After all, you gotta start somewhere. I thought about getting the tree out the other

day when the three little boys came to visit, but other things got in the way, and before I knew it their mom was back to scoop them up and take them to their skating thing. I was left with a basement full of toys, three dozen slightly burned cookies, minus about a dozen that got eaten, some by me, some by other adults, but mostly by two little boys. The baby is only seven months old and too young to eat slightly burned double chocolate chip cookies, eating instead some concoction of banana and apple sauce, fed to him by me with this little tiny plastic coated spoon that was almost, but not quite, hidden in my knife and fork drawer. He certainly gobbled up the stuff, anyway, sitting on my knee, covering me and him with the gooey concoction and rewarding me in the end with a big, wide, open mouth grin. “You are so cute,” I tell him, sounding so grandma like, all mushy and gooey, kind of like the baby food, but seriously, I can’t believe how happy I feel when he nestles his dear little head in my shoulder. It’s like nothing else matters much!

Anyway, as far as playing Christmas carols, my music teacher gave me three new ones to learn. They are not new, of course, but old, but the point is, they are new to me and, at this moment which still happens to be in November, I cannot play them very well at all. But, I’m figuring by my next lesson, I will rock! And then I will learn three more, and before Christmas arrives, I will skim through the book, and will be labeled by friends and families as a Christmas carol player, extraordinaire. True, I have that objective every year, and somehow it never happens cause I get all busy with other stuff and am exhausted and flop on the couch to watch another Christmas special on the Hallmark channel, managing to find the Christmas spirit through stuff that may or may not be make believe. I like to think the stuff I watch is real and true and good and Christmas magic does really exist. Well, actually, I don’t think, I know. It is true! I am a believer!

Percentage of midwifery births in Canada remains low OTTAWA, ON/ Troy Media/ - It is perplexing why we have so few midwifery births in Canada. At last count, there were roughly a little over 1.300 midwives attending less than 10 per cent of births in Canada. This figure stands in stark contrast with the Netherlands where upwards of 80 per cent of women are cared for by a midwife, and the UK, where midwives attend all births and are primarily responsible for the majority. Part of the cause is that Canada was one of a handful of countries (and the only Western industrialized nation) not to have any provisions for midwifery care prior to 1993. In the last 20 years, there has been growth in the profession, but only modest. At the same time there has been a rapid exodus of family physicians no longer delivering babies - for a number of reasons, including that attending births is disruptive to one’s practice and one’s lifestyle. Babies like to come at all hours of the day and night, and not neatly into nine to five time slots, Monday to Friday. By default, it is obstetricians - specialists in high risk maternity care - who have been left to address this gap in childbirth attendance. In Canada, family physicians largely refer pregnant women to obstetricians, in part because there are too few midwives available. It is important to note that maternity care providers are not interchangeable. Midwives, family physicians and obstetricians all deliver babies with a different approach. Obstetricians are trained to manage high-risk pregnancies and birth; this requires vigilance and often intervention. Having obstetricians attend more women

Ivy Lynn Bourgeault Guest Columnist with low risk pregnancies can result in more interventions being done on women for whom the interventions are less appropriate, less effective and less evidencebased. Indeed, a rapidly increasing Caesarean section rate can be seen, in part, as a symptom of this mismatched approach to low-risk care. The fact that C-sections rank as the top surgical procedure across Canadian hospitals (over 100,000 in 2012/13), eclipsing the next most frequent procedure (hips and knee replacement) by a factor of almost two fold, should cause some serious reflection on the state of maternity care in Canada. Midwives are trained to manage low risk pregnancies and birth in a way that is also vigilant, involving time, patience - but with fewer interventions. One of the highest standards of evidence - a Cochrane review confirmed the safety and efficacy of midwifery led care as an option that should be available to all women. Closer to home, an evaluation of the midwifery approach to maternity care in Ontario noted that midwives have lower intervention rates, fewer re-admissions to hospital and shorter hospital stays. This difference in approach translates into a cost savings of $800 per midwifery-attended hospital birth and a savings of $1,800 for home births when compared with family physician care for women with low risk pregnancies. This is one of those rare win-win situations in healthcare.

So, how can we begin to move forward to address this perplexing situation? First, we need to begin to shift who provides lowrisk maternity care in Canada through a coordinated and sustained expansion of midwifery education programs across the country. We quite simply need more midwives so we need to train substantially more and we need to start doing this now. We also need a parallel increase in employment and practice opportunities for midwives now, and for those who will be coming out of these programs. This is particularly important in those provinces and territories where there is, as of yet, no provisions for midwifery care. There will be costs to be sure, but this new training could build on the present infrastructure for midwifery education and practice in Canada. More to the point, the costs will be significantly less than the status quo of a continued rising intervention and Caesarean-section rate reflecting a maternity care landscape that exists nearly nowhere else in the world. Undertaking these actions, and quickly, will enable us to get back to being unique in ways that are more exemplary.

This year we have twenty-nine members in our club and two Cleaver Kids. We are sad that four of our members have graduated and are no longer joining this year. We are excited to see what this 4-H year brings. We have a couple of new faces and lots of returning members. This year at our first meeting we held elections. Our president is Ben Trenson and our vice president is Erin Burrage. Hanna Falt is our treasurer, Leah Trenson is our secretary, Tim Trenson is our Parliamentarian and Sylvia Trautman is our reporter. Also Mackenzie Skeels and Reid Frayn are our historians. Lastly Sylvia Trautman and Tim Trenson are our senior and junior district reps. Our weigh in was on October 5th. We had 26 steers, thirteen heifers and eight carcass steers. A big thanks to the Bluffton Vet Clinic for letting us use their facilities. We would also like to thank the Merial company for donating our ivomec. In addition we have also helped at the Hoadley fall supper and with the Volunteer Fair. We have also been participated in tire recycling in the community. In October we also had a judging and roping fun day. First we judged feeder steers and then dairy heifers. We learned lots about dairy heifers and how to judge them. Thank you to Heidi Trenson and Marcus Hehli for judging. After judging Stan Gilchrist and Ryan Gilchrist taught us how to make rope halters. Hope your hands weren’t too sore after helping all of us. We sure made some nice yellow rope halters. Stan Skeels showed us his roping skills on straw bales and roping steer heads. Then we all tried our roping skills, which was super fun. Overall we had a great day! Our club had our second meeting on November 6th and discussed many upcoming events and old business. Some of our upcoming events are; a public speaking workshop, meetings, a toboggan party, public speaking and much more. So far we are off to a great start and we are excited for what the rest of the year brings! -Submitted

Plans continue to hold new AGM for Wildrose in Rimbey-Rocky-Sundre riding By Treena Mielke A small, but vocal group of Wildrose Party members from the Rimbey-Rocky Mountain House-Sundre constituency are continuing their efforts to see Jason Nixon ousted as the party’s next MLA candidate. Edwin Erickson, who maintains he is president of the board voted in at a controversial AGM held Oct. 15, said Jason Nixon’s name is still on the website of Elections Alberta as constituency president. “That is a conflict,” he said. “He is still registered with Elections Alberta as the president of this constituency.” However, Nixon said it is an “oversight” that his name is still appearing as president on the website. “I’m assuming it is some paperwork that got overlooked.” Nixon said, David Yager, Wildrose Party president has been contacted about the oversight and has taken steps to ensure the website is updated. Nixon said he followed the rules care-

Jason Nixon

fully during the nomination process to ensure he was not breaching correct protocol. “In accordance with Wildrose bylaws, I took a leave of absence on June 4, 2014, well in advance of filing my paperwork for the nomination. Ted Bach was elected president of the constituency association board after my leave of absence and has remained president since that date. I have not been president since that time. Mr. Bach has been president and remains president.” Nixon defeated MLA Joe Anglin in a nomination race held July 5, 242 to 122. “After my successful nomination election I did resign in accordance with the bylaws. Nixon said he sees the time and energy being spent rehashing these dates as unusual behaviour. “To continue to bring them up despite the fact they have been repeatedly addressed by both myself and the Wildrose Party is behavior that gets in the way of serving constituents which is disappointing for me.”

Nixon said he wants to focus on the other issues. “I relish the chance to serve this Riding as its next MLA. My role now, along with our Riding supporters is to focus on effective constituency service as a springboard to help solve an array of issues littering our landscape with decades of failed initiatives. “I also want to seize the opportunities ahead to exhilarate our collective growth, prosperity and well being.” Paul McLauchlin, vice president of communications for the constituency said the controversy surrounding the nomination of Jason Nixon is nothing but “sour grapes.” “It’s over with, he’s an official candidate for Wildrose and we’ve moved on. We want to focus our time and energy onto seeing Jason get elected as our next MLA.” The fact that Nixon’s name was listed on the Elections Alberta website was simply an administration error. “It’s not a smoking gun,” he said.

Toronto lawyer disputes Wildrose Party’s decision regarding AGM By Treena Mielke

the executive committee shall appoint one or more members to investigate the merits of the dispute, which members shall be authorized to intervene to attempt to resolve the dispute. Article 14.3.3 states if members ap-

pointed pursuant to Article 14.3.2 decide not to intervene or are unsuccessful in resolving the dispute, the executive committee shall, in writing, refer the matter to the party arbitration committee. “This interpretation is consistent with

the view that the party should be run on democratic principles, which allows the members of the party to decide how meetings should be run and allow members to decide whether rules have been breached,” said Bur in his letter.

For Wildrose Party president David Yager it’s business as usual, despite attempts by a Toronto lawyer to question the party’s move to reschedule an AGM held recently in the Rimbey-Rocky Mountain House-Sundre constituency. Yager recently received a letter from Donald Bur, a lawyer who lives and works in Ontario, questioning decisions made following the decision to scrap a controversial annual general meeting held • overnight premium Oct. 15 and hold another one.

Anglin announced plans to sit as independent MLA ity rights at the Wildrose annual meeting over the weekend. I was particularly disappointed in this vote because I was instrumental in getting that policy on equal rights passed last year. Prior to this year’s meeting the Wildrose Party had the most inclusive equal rights policy in Canada. Now they have to explain and justify why the party has back-tracked. For this and many other reasons I will be sitting for the first time as an independent MLA. I’m looking forward to this new role, and I’m confident that my new role will allow me to better advocate for the constituents of Rimbey-Rocky Mountain HouseSundre. My first order of business this session will be a private member’s Bill. The Bill, if passed, will require full disclosure of all utility costs, and it will standardize and simplify utility bills to help all consumers understand just how all those extra charges on a utility bill are calculated. With all the changes that have occurred prior to this session, it very well may produce some significant results, if not surprises. There are still many questions to be asked and answered. As an optimist, I look forward to the debates and the opportunity to make a real impact to affect positive change. For more information please contact my office in Rocky Mountain House at (403) 844-2070. Krista Nelson, Constituency Assistant for Joe Anglin, MLA for Rimbey-Rocky Mountain House-Sundre

Dear Editor, A day in the world of politics can seem like an eternity. On Monday MLAs will return to the Alberta Legislature to listen to the new premier’s first speech from the throne. Newly elected premier, Jim Prentice, will outline his government’s agenda in an effort to convince Albertans that the PC’s are still fit to govern. He has made it clear that he will grapple with the falling price of oil, and he will introduce legislation to fix the property rights issues that most concern Alberta’s landowners. As the MLA for Rimbey-Rocky Mountain House-Sundre, the property rights issue is Joe Anglin of particular interest to me. In the 18-months leading up to my election, I had travelled to 91 rural communities and conducted 266 town hall meetings advocating for property rights. On the other side of the Legislature, the Wildrose opposition is in full damage control after its membership defeated a definitive policy on equal-

Barry Edge Memorial Scholarship awarded to young calf roper By Treena Mielke A seventeen-year-old calf roper from the Stettler area is this year’s recipient of The Barry Edge Memorial Scholarship. Quinton Van Straten was presented with the thousand dollar scholarship at the Rimbey Rodeo banquet and cabaret held at the Rimbey Drop In Centre Sat. Nov. 15. Van Straten was presented the cheque by Dean Edge, son of the late Barry Edge. He said Van Straten, a Grade 12 student in Stettler, was a deserving recipient who fit the criteria of the scholarship well. “We wanted to go with somebody who ropes, is dedicated, and will be going on for further education.” This is the fourth year the Edge

family has presented the scholarship, which is always given out in conjunction with the Rimbey Rodeo banquet and cabaret. Edge said the rodeo association also donated funding to the scholarship when it was initiated. Van Straten, a friendly, outgoing young man, who prefers to be wearing his cowboy hat, when having his photo taken, said he was pleased and honored to be selected for the scholarship. “I knew Barry personally,” he said. “He was a successful and talented roper who encouraged me. He was somebody you looked up to and was always there to help you.” Van Straten is sitting second in high school rodeo standings for tie down roping this season. He truly

loves the sport and has big plans for the future. “I want to make the CFR, win Canada, win the worlds,” he said with an engaging grin.

Rimbey rodeo banquet and cabaret celebration well attended By Treena Mielke

Rimbey rodeo queen Martina Holtcamp received a $350 honorarium from Steven Boyce, president of Rimbey Rodeo Association.

The Rimbey rodeo banquet and cabaret held Saturday evening offered a pleasing potpourri of delicious food, old fashioned friendliness, celebration, the presentation of awards and honorariums and a chance to enjoy the sounds of a live band. The event, held at Rimbey Drop In Centre attracted more than 100 people and it seemed a good time was had by all. Dean Edge, the master of ceremonies for the evening, recently returned from the Canadian Finals Rodeo where he won the go-round in tie-down roping on the last day of the competition. His win put him in seventh place and has qualified him to compete in the Calgary Stampede in 2015. He is pleased with his success at the CFR and is looking forward to the Stampede. During his career in rodeo, Edge has learned to roll with the punches and has experienced his share of wins and losses. However, in the end, he remains a strong believer in the benefits of dedication, hard work and striving always to be achieving one’s personal best. “The more you can practice, the luckier you get,” he said. Rimbey’s lovely young rodeo queen, Martina Holtcamp was presented with a $350 honorarium from the rodeo board during the banquet. Holtcamp, who also attended the CFR, said the experience was one she very much enjoyed.

“The first event I went to was rodeo magic, where kids from Edmonton area get partnered up with a pro or a rodeo queen and get to be cowboys and cowgirls for a few hours,” she said. She also attended the public speaking portion of the Miss Rodeo Canada pageant and the Miss Rodeo Canada alumni luncheon and fashion show. “There were a lot of amazing people, with delicious food, great entertainment and a fantastic fashion show,” she said. “It was so nice to meet some ladies who have previously been Miss Rodeo Canada who were sitting at my table. That evening was the awards and crowning reception, and it was exciting to watch Katy Lucas, the current Ponoka Stampede Queen be crowned Miss Rodeo Canada 2015.” The final event she attended at the CFR was the Miss Rodeo Canada 60th anniversary brunch. “The Canadian Finals Rodeo is definitely not something I’m going to forget anytime soon,” she said. Rimbey rodeo princess Whitteny Block received a $250 honorarium from the Rimbey rodeo association and Winfield Gait Riders members Geneva Rodin and Danielle Hoflin received $1,000 donation to go towards their club. Hazel Street from Rimbey rodeo association presented president Steven Boyce with $1,000 to go to the Bluffton 4-H Club. A silent auction was also part of the evening, which concluded with entertainment by Debra D and the Western Wind.

The Rimbey Review, Nov. 25, 2014 13

Santa Night coming to Pas Ka Poo Park By Treena Mielke Santa Claus is coming to town and, no doubt, he has double-checked his naughty and nice list, so it would be wise for both big and little kids to be sure their name is on the right list. Santa Claus will be in Rimbey Friday, Nov. 28 bringing with him his faithful companion, Mrs. Claus, and no doubt, there will be a few elves around as well, handing out treats to children of all ages. Santa will be the star attraction at Pas Ka Poo Park’s annual Santa night to be held from 3:30 to 6 p.m. at the park. Of course, one can be sure the Grinch will be hanging around as well, trying to steal a few presents and generally making a nuisance of himself. It promises to be a great night, regardless of the weather, with lots of fun activities planned for the entire family to enjoy. Cheryl Jones, park administrator said the Santa night committee comprised of Jackie Stratton, Cindy Bowie, Gayle Rondeel, Dawna Providenti and herself has been hard at work to ensure the evening’s success. The evening, however, wouldn’t be possible without the help of a great many volunteers and these people come forward every year to do their part. Stuart Lyster will provide the hay-

rides, Keith Kendrew will be there with his trusty donkey and Jan Slomp will bring hay bales. The wieners for the hotdogs will be supplied by Canalta, the buns donated by Rimbey Coop and hot chocolate will be donated by Rimbey Foods. The Nesbitt family will provide Santa’s sleigh and the Historical Society volunteers will cook hotdogs and supply condiments. Schools and 4-H clubs will also help out. Firewood will be donated for the bonfire. Santa Night marks the occasion when the park is lit up for the first time and all the buildings, decorated by local businesses, will sparkle as the Christmas season gets underway. The public will have an opportunity to vote during Santa Night for the best-decorated building and a voting station will be set up. Jones said there is a couple of buildings, open space sheds and yard space still available for any business who wants to take part in the decorating challenge. During the evening, representatives from Rimbey Food Bank and Rimbey Boys and Girls Club will be on hand to accept donations. “It truly is a community event and we continue to try to grow it,” said Jones. “We are always looking for more volunteers.”
