to recognize and reminisce over the tireless efforts of two volunteers, the late Joel Cassidy, of Camrose, and the late Allen Hein, of Hay Lakes. Each of these dedicated supporters of D.U. committed their spare time over 30 years in order to make a difference.

The memorial dinner will be held on April 9 at Camrose Resort Casino. Ducks Unlimited Canada is known for the work it does conserving and restoring Canada’s wetland habitats for the benefit of waterfowl, wildlife and people. Since its beginning in 1938, D.U.C has influenced about 2.2 million acres of land in Alberta. The mandate of Ducks Unlimited is to help stop wetland loss, acre by acre, and save wetlands for tomorrow, today. The organization continually seeks sponsors and supporters in their drive to help save valuable acres of wetland habitat. Donations of any kind are accepted and tax receipts are issued. For more information or tickets to the April 9 fundraising dinner, call chair John Levitt at 780-374-0168, or Doug Zarski at 780-672-2228.

BRSD adopts safe and caring schools and policy By Dan Jensen The Battle River School Division board of trustees has given its stamp of approval to a safe and caring schools and worksites policy to help ensure that members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered, queer/questioning (LGBTQ) students feel safe and welcome at school. The policy was developed over a period of several months with direction from Alberta Education and feedback from parents and community members. “Our policy committee created a draft from the meetings that were held with parents and students and members of the Camrose Pride community, as well as the feedback that was received at a divisionwide planning day that was attended by principals, parent council reps and student council reps,” explained BRSD board chair Lorrie Sitler. “Members of our board had the opportunity to make amendments to it to ensure it was something they wanted to put forward.” Provincial mandate The policy was mandated by the provincial government to be consistent with the province’s new human rights legislation that specifically protects members of the LGTBQ community. “Alberta Education believes school division policies/procedures must specifically address LGTBQ students because these students do not feel safe,” says a question and answer document put out by BRSD. “School divisions have been directed to update their policies/procedures in order to specifically protect LGBTQ students.” Inclusive environment The policy commits school administrators to work with students, staff and parents to create and maintain a welcoming, safe, caring, respectful and inclusive environment by providing inclusive and

respectful services and supports, ensuring that their school is equipped with at least one private singlestall washroom, supporting or leading any activity or student organizations intended to promote a welcoming, caring, respectful and safe learning environment that respects diversity and fosters a sense of belonging, ensuring that discriminatory behaviours and complaints are taken seriously, documented and dealt with in a timely manner, ensuring that students are provided with adequate supervision at all approved activities, and making those involved in school related activities aware of expectations for conduct. “Battle River School Division recognizes individual and harmful biases may exist within our schools,” says the policy background statement. “The board believes that such biases are intolerable. Harmful biases result in behaviours that damage the physical, mental and emotional well-being of students and negatively impact their educational, social and career outcomes. Further, they damage relationships with peers, families and community partners.” Programs The policy also supports the development of programs that provide students with a nurturing environment, opportunities for and recognition for success, and enhancement of self-esteem, self-discipline and a sense of responsibility. At the school level, it states that the principal shall be responsible for resolving disputes in an equitable and inclusive manner regarding issues for all students and their participation in educational programs and co-curricular/extra-curricular activities. Own decisions Students will have the right to make their own decisions about disclosing

their personal information, including sexual orientation to the other students and the staff around them. If the parents are not already aware, the students will be supported and encouraged to share the information with parents. Only if the school staff feel that disclosure contravenes the school act regarding student safety will there be consideration given to not sharing with parents. Questions about need The board of trustees initially questioned the minister of education as to whether a safe and caring policy was required, believing its policy, administrative procedures and vision statement already applied to every student. “We expressed our concern with having to single out a particular group to the minister,” said Sitler. “We felt we were already covering every student and being sure to accommodate any needs with each student individually. Our members had the feeling that they didn’t want to be in a position of singling out one group of students and making it seem like we were allowing them to supercede in our protections and accommodations.” Statistics gathered by the provincial government show LGBTQ students are at higher risk of bullying, violence and suicide and that 90 per cent of transgender students report being harassed because of their expression of gender. They also show that in 2007, 10 per cent of all hate crimes in Canada were motivated by the victim’s perceived orientation, with 56 per cent of those hate crimes being of a violent nature. The deadline for school jurisdictions in the province to have a policy and accompanying documents, including administrative procedures and codes of conduct, was March 31.

United Church Council chair Shelly Hurley accepts an Affirming Church certificate from Gary Simpson, of McDougall United Church in Edmonton. By Alex Oliver

Camrose United Church has become an affirming ministry within The United Church of Canada. Gary Simpson of McDougall United Church in Edmonton presented the official certificate at a March service on behalf of Affirm United to Camrose Church Council chair Shelly Hurley. In part the certificate reads, “We acknowledge that this congregation has completed the Affirming Ministry educational programme and has issued a statement of faith and action which welcomes people of all sexual orientation and gender identities into every aspect of their life and work. “Camrose United Church has strong grassroots support for inclusion and affirmation of all people,” noted Gary. “Grassroots spiritual decisions tend to stick and are lived out better by congregations than decisions that are made by spiritual leaders.” The doors are open. “I’m so thankful for all the people who took part in the service. Sunday was about letting the Camrose community know who Camrose United Church is, and what we stand for,” said Reverend Liz Carter-Morgan. “We work hard to find where there are barriers to inclusion for anyone, and to work with Christ to tear down those walls and build a community where no one feels alone and everyone belongs. Sunday was a chance for us to be explicit about who we are, to ‘come out’ to everyone in Camrose as a place that celebrates all genders, orientations, ethnicities, ages, abilities and classes.” Reverend Alan Richards added, “This Sunday, we pulled out all the stops! We celebrated the love we experience in God’s presence. We celebrated what this congregation, in so many ways, can and does share with others beyond our walls. “Being an Affirming Ministries congregation is about living our faith. So many people are pushed aside, and made to feel afraid, unwelcome or invisible. I believe what we’re doing is saying no to this and yes to a better way of relating with each other. We’ve got a lot of work to do, and there will be new challenges to face. Sunday, however, we celebrated that God affirms humans of every shape, colour, gender, status, age...and more.” Liz also remarked, “The real work to become an Affirming Ministry happened long before I got here. The work ahead of us is living ever more fully into our vision.”

Census enumerators deliver PIN letters

Camrose mayor Norm Mayer completes the census.

Submitted Census enumerators delivered over 8,000 PIN letters to Camrose residences from March 21 to 30. Residents wishing to complete the census online may use the PIN number delivered and enter their name online to win a free iPad. A direct link to the census is provided on the City web page. For those who do not have internet access but wish to submit their information online, a computer is available at the Camrose Public Library and at City Hall (during regular hours). Please ensure that you bring along your individual PIN letter that was delivered to your house. If you did not receive a PIN letter please contact City Hall. Residents who are not able to complete the census online or wish to talk to someone in person can wait for a home visit from an enumerator between May 9 and 31. The choice of how you wish to submit your data is completely up to you, but the City asks that you take part. The data is important to establish the "official population" count and provide other demographic statistics. This information is used for short and long term planning purposes for City programs and services, and is also used by the school boards to assist in their planning. Businesses, residents and other interested parties may also use the statistics to make informed decisions. The last municipal census was conducted in 2014, at which time the official population count was 18,038. This number will continue to be used for per captia grant funding received from both the provincial and federal government until a new official population count is established. Based on the population from 2014, the City will receive $312 per person in grant funding in 2015. The City of Camrose ensures that the data collected will be kept confidential and maintained under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FOIP). All census enumerators will be wearing City of Camrose identification and will only be asking questions that they are required to collect for the purposes of the census. Take only a few minutes of your time to take part in the census.

Wild Rose Co-operative gives back to communities By Dan Jensen

When Wild Rose Cooperative Association general manager Carol Rollheiser was looking for another way the co-op could give back to the communities it serves, her first thought was to try something similar to a food trailer in St. Paul. Although the idea had merit, it was determined that a better idea would be a food truck. “In a meeting with her we agreed that a trailer would be hard because you have to have a big truck to pull it and a lot of the people who run these community events are women,” said Lynne Jenkinson, director of Flagstaff Family and Community Support Services, who accepted the donation of the truck at the Wild Rose Co-operative Association annual general meeting March 23. “It will be easier for women to drive this than to tow it around.” The truck will be managed by Flagstaff Family and Community Services and rented to non profit community groups in Flagstaff County, Beaver County, Camrose County and the city of Camrose for fundraising events such as hockey tournaments and movies in the park. It will also be used to provide services in the event of a disaster. “The primary purpose

is to service the volunteers and the personnel who are responding to the disaster,” said Rollheiser. The truck will have a full kitchen with grille,

deep fryers and a built-in generator. “The truck itself is used but all the equipment in it is brand new,” said Rollheiser, adding that the total

cost of everything is around $100,000. “We’re having it built right now and it should be ready in the next few weeks.”

Flagstaff Family and Community Services was chosen to manage the truck because of its central location between Beaver, Flagstaff and Camrose and the fact that it already has experience managing a caravan for medical purposes. “Disaster situations take top priority but anyone can book it as long as they are a non profit group,” said Jenkinson. “We’re going to have a contract that the groups will have to sign promising that they will bring it back to us as clean as it was when they received it. “The rentals will be on a first come first served basis.” Rollheiser and Jenkinson expect that the truck will receive a lot of use. “A lot of businesses have barbecues that they donate for events but usually they have to be towed behind a truck,” said Jenkinson. “With this food truck everything is enclosed and it doesn’t matter if it rains. “The groups will be able to sell hamburgers and everything because it is totally enclosed.” Rollheiser said the donation ties in with Wild Rose Co-operative Association’s values and dedication to serving its communities. “We saw there was a need for something like this in the smaller communities and we wanted to provide a service.”

Goldstein at conference By Lori Larsen There are times in every person’s life where finding strength and determination seems virtually impossible. Leah Goldstein, author of the book No Limits, World Kickboxing Champion, Krav Maga Instructor for the Israelian Elite Commandos, Ultra Endurance Pro Cyclist, and former member of the Isreali military and special forces (secret police) has made a mission of sharing her message about never giving up on life. Goldstein will be the keynote speaker at the 18th annual Women’s Conference held at the Camrose Regional Exhibition on April 8, where she hopes to inspire attendees with her stories. “My personal message is about not stopping,” said Goldstein. “It seems that as we get older our motivation to do things and set goals comes to a halt or stops because we can come up with more excuses.” Goldstein instilled this mantra in her own life after a conversation she had with her grandmother before she passed away. “She had cancer and didn’t want to die because she wasn’t done doing all the things she wanted to do. She finally started reactivating her life at the age of 65,” she said. Goldstein uses her own life challenges and triumphs to deliver messages to her audience about living life with no limits, setting goals and going after the things in life that make you feel content both mentally and soulfully. When asked what inspires her, Goldstein replied, “Seeing someone really struggling to

succeed and not giving up, that is inspirational to me. It could be the littlest things; it doesn’t matter, but just being a mental fighter and really going after the things that you love.” Goldstein is the epitome of perseverance. At the early age of 14 she had already obtained her black belt and by 17 was the World Kickboxing Champion. She enlisted in the Israel Military, quickly progressing into a Special Forces unit. Setting precedent not only in her own life but in the lives of many women around the world. “It was a major achievement in my professional career. Breaking those barriers of what women were allowed to do. I wanted to work for a division of intelligence (in the security forces) but the course wasn’t even open to women. I had to fight all the way to the commissioner for him to open up those doors. When I finally got in they put me through the run around. It was just insane how they wanted me to fail.” Goldstein graduated in the top third of her class, a feat that resulted in the opening of doors for other women and the opening of eyes for the naysayers. “It was a huge victory on a professional side,” she said. The grueling lifestyle involved in working with secret police forces played a toll on Goldstein so she found reprieve in the sport of cycling. Like her professional career, she pursued cycling with great determination. “I struggled (at first) in pro cycling because I didn’t

have a natural gift for riding,” remarked Goldstein. “It took me eight years to finally get there.” In 2005, while racing in the Cascade Classic in central Oregon, Goldstein was involved in a devastating cycle crash. Travelling at 85 kilometres per hour, she was clipped by another cyclist and landed on her face on unforgiving asphalt. “I should have been dead. The people that saw me there said there was no way I was going to survive that crash and yet I came out of it and had the strongest years on the bike at ages 39, 40 and 41.” After the accident Goldstein had to work even harder to be accepted in the pro cycling circle, a very team oriented sport. “Nobody wanted to sign me because they didn’t think I would be able to come back to that level. I was basically on my own,” she said. “I was a one-woman team who had to prove to the cycling world that I was worth the investment and I was winning races all by myself.” Goldstein shares her messages of triumph, determination, inner and physical strength and creating a winning mind set with audiences during her many presentations and in the contents of her book, No Limits, an autobiography of her amazing journey through life thus far. “People can’t believe some of the stories of what I went through with the military, police, pro cycling and ultra endurance racing and said I should write a book,” she said.

Camrose resident runner-up in career makeover By Lori Larsen Good things really do happen to good people and that is evident for Camrose resident Jaimie Griffiths who was selected as the runner up in Lethbridge Community College’s Extreme Career Makeover 2.

“I was so nervous, my stomach was turning,” said Jaimie. Along with the other five top contestants, Jaimie attended the announcement event held at LCC (Lethbridge Community College)

campus on March 9 at around 10:30 a.m. “It took about 15 minutes then they made the announcement, it was amazing,” said Jaimie. She will receive two years of tuition for a program of her choice at LCC. She plans to

begin the correctional studies program in September of this year, through distance learning. One million Canadians read or heard about the Extreme Career Makeover 2 contest. Of that, there were close to 250,000 online inter-

actions, nearly 400,000 views of the contestants’ personal videos and over 14,400 votes were cast over a period of 12 days. “I am totally happy,” commented Jaimie. “And I want to thank everyone who voted for me.”

Cabas look forward to receiving keys to Habitat home By Dan Jensen Sheryl and Marcelino Caba and their one-year-old son, Matthieu, are looking forward to receiving the keys to their new Habitat for Humanity Camrose built home this summer. “It’s going to mean a lot to my wife, my baby and I,” said Marcelino. “It’s going to give us an extra measure of security.” Marcelino, who works as a cook at A&W, was introduced to Habitat for Humanity by his friend Jomer Garcia, who, along with his wife and children, moved into a Habitat home last July. “I helped him with his sweat equity and he put me in contact with Habitat for Humanity project coordinator Brenda Murdock,” said Marcelino.

Safeway) will be the 29th and 30th in its history. “We build homes with volunteers and community partners and then sell those homes to hard working families at fair market value but at a payment they can afford,” said Habitat for Humanity Camrose executive director Cody McCarroll. “The zero per cent interest mortgage we provide gives families a chance at home ownership which then becomes a stable platform for change that they can use to make a lasting difference in their lives.” Life changing

Exciting news

The Cabas were informed they had been chosen by Habitat to be a partner family on Jan. 22, approximately three months after submitting their application. “We were so happy and excited when we received the news,” said Sheryl, who rejoined her husband in Camrose this past October after going back to the Philippines. “We didn’t know what would happen when we put in our application because there were a lot of other applications besides ours.” The Cabas are currently living in a seven bedroom home with six other people. “Living in a home with six other people isn’t the best of situations, especially if you have a baby,” said Marcelino. “The baby cries at night

sometimes and that makes it hard on the other people who have to get up, and go to work in the mornings.” The Cabas are already well on their way to the 500 hours of sweat equity required of them before as a down payment before they can move into their new home. “I’ve accumulated about 70 hours so far and for sure will have it finished by the time we receive the keys,”

said Marcelino. “I am committed to getting it done.” Qualifying for a home

Habitat for Humanity home ownership applicants must provide information about their income level, debt and credit rating, and how long they have lived in Camrose. “We go by the CNIT, which is the Canadian Net Income Table,” said Habitat for Humanity family home services committee chair

Pat Johnston, who assists the partner families with the preparation of all the necessary documents. “If your income falls within the $30,000 to $44,000 range you may qualify for a Habitat home.” Habitat for Humanity’s mission is to build affordable housing and promote home ownership as a means of breaking the cycle of poverty. The two homes that were started on Feb. 29 (behind

The Camrose Composite High School leadership team was involved in the build of the 2015 Habitat for Humanity homes. “The opportunity to help at the Habitat for Humanity build site was a an exciting opportunity,” said a leadership group member in a letter that was read at the dedication of the homes July 3. “I never thought, however, it would be a more miraculous experience than I ever expected. I went to the build expecting to help my community and I was excited to make a small difference. Much to my surprise, from learning to side a house, to pounding nails, I learned so much from going to the build than I ever imagined. Normally when we think of helping other people it sounds like a lot of work. This did not seem to be the case with this project. Throughout the morning we were able to learn a ton and had a blast. And we were able to make a difference at the same time.”

Habitat for Humanity home means new life for Camrose family By Dan Jensen

When Sunds Dawood received a call from Habitat for Humanity Camrose telling her she and her husband, Ashak Qliana, and her two daughters would be receiving a new home this summer she felt she had been given a new life. “I felt like I had just been born,” she said. “I can’t say how much it means to our family.” Sunds and her family have been calling Camrose home since they arrived here as refugees from Iraq on Nov. 21, 2011. “We spent a year in Toronto between July 1, 2013 and July 1, 2014 but we didn’t like it there,” said Sunds. “It was too big and busy so we moved back here.” In their previous life (Baghdad) Sunds worked as a hairdresser at a salon and Ashak as a chef at a restaurant. Sunds currently works at the Monte Carlo restaurant in Camrose, while Ashak works as a janitor at the school in New Norway. Sunds was encouraged to apply for Habitat home ownership by her friends.

Sunds Dawood and Ashak Qliana were excited to hear the news that their application for a Habitat for Humanity-built home had been accepted.

“I wasn’t sure if they would give me approval but I tried and it has worked out well,” she said. “I was so excited when they told me we had been accepted. I had

a hard time believing it was true.” Sunds and Ashak are very impressed with the warm welcome they have received in Camrose.

“It’s like we have found our second home,” said Sunds. “I consider all the people here my family. They are so giving and generous, and if I don’t under-

stand something I always have someone I can turn to for help.” The eldest of their two daughters is a student at Our Lady of Mount Pleasant School, a few grades ahead of her sister who is in Grade 4 at St. Patrick School. The couple has already started working towards the 500 hours of sweat equity that is required as a form of down payment for home ownership. Sunds is volunteering at Habitat for Humanity ReStore and working at the Ukrainian Catholic Church making perogies, and Ashak plans to devote his time to the home build when it gets underway. “We don’t think the 500 hours will be a problem at all,” said Ashak. Sunds is currently taking English lessons and working towards her Canadian citizenship. “I am hoping that I will be able to get my citizenship this November,” she said. “It would be a very good year if I can get both my Canadian citizenship and a new home.

Goldstein speaks on having no limits

Continued from page 10 It took almost six years to complete the book, stopping and starting it during training and racing, but once she acquired a trustworthy writer, her story unfolded onto the pages and No Limits was published in 2015. Goldstein has retired from the pro racing circuit but does stay actively involved. “I still race in my age category and I train a lot of clients (not professional) and attend the races with them,” she said. Goldstein now spends the majority of her time focusing on motivational speaking and her co-owned company, No Finish Lines. “The biggest reward from doing presentations is seeing the reaction of women during the presentation and hearing their feedback especially when they say there is something they needed to hear that I said that helped them change their life or get through a personal struggle,” she said. “To me that is feeling I never felt winning anything, be it world championships, or the hardest race across America. Helping other people get through their struggles and being partly responsible is an incredible feeling something I have never experienced before.” Along with her appearance at the Women’s Conference Goldstein will have copies of her book for purchase.

Alberta freezes salaries

Alberta is freezing salaries for all management and non-union employees at provincial agencies, boards and commissions as part of the province’s ongoing restraint measures to reduce government operating costs. Among the organizations affected by the freeze are Alberta Health Services, the Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission, and the Alberta Energy Regulator. The freeze will be in effect for two years, beginning April 1, 2016. “We are facing oncein-a-generation economic challenges, and we need to reduce our costs while doing all we can to protect jobs and maintain public services that support families,” said Joe Ceci, president of Treasury Board and Finance Minister Similar compensation freezes were put into effect in January for all management and non-union Alberta public service employees,

and last October for Cabinet members, MLAs and political staff. The freeze applies to all agencies, boards and commissions listed under Alberta’s Public Agencies Governance Act. The salary freeze is a first step to contain salary cost while the review of compensation for board members and executives at agencies, boards and commissions continues. As outlined in the Throne Speech, legislation will be introduced this spring to further address compensation for these officials.

Angels of Africa supports children who are orphaned By Murray Green

Sam Childers is a changed man. He redirected his energy and bravery from drug dealing and debauchery to serving God in Africa. Known on the big screen as The Machine Gun Preacher, he battled to save orphan children in eastern Africa. Angels of East Africa volunteer Russell Wolf of Red Deer County (Spruce View) also has taken up the challenge of rescuing children. He not only assisted the program by going to Sudan, he spoke to members from Grace Lutheran Church and other community minded people about how they can get involved. Church member Eileen Lindberg heard him speak in Didsbury and she wanted him to share his story in Camrose. “I want to make people aware of the work done through Angels of East Africa and share information on God’s work,” said Wolf. “It is a chance to show God’s work and I want to share the fact that God has a plan for them as well.” Childers took up the challenge to help others. “I was clicking channels one night looking for a movie to watch and I came across the movie about his life. I’m a motorcycle enthusiast, so I began reading up on his mission and become very interested,” explained Wolf. Childers grew up in the hills of Pennsylvania. His

parents were decent, honest people, but at an early age he started to show a knack for getting into trouble. By his early teens he was constantly in fist fights, selling hard drugs and sleeping with married women. He continued to slide deeper into a life of violence and crime until he became an armed guard for drug dealers. It was during this stage of his life that he met Lynn, a stripper, who would later become his wife. Childers became increasingly concerned that he was going to be killed because of drugs and slowly began to distance himself from his former life. “The incident that changed things was a bar fight that nearly left him dead and Lynn was arrested and put on two years probation,” said Wolf. Childers found a job in construction and prospered despite his continuing drug and alcohol habit. Lynn, meanwhile, returned to the church she had forsaken as a young adult. He also sought to establish his relationship with God and began to live a clean life. Slowly, things began to change for the better. Lynn gave birth to a healthy baby girl and Sam started his own construction business. In 1998, Childers arrived in the village of Yei, Southern Sudan. The Afri-

can nation was in the midst of the Second Sudanese War, and joined a mission group to help repair huts damaged in the conflict. During this assignment, Sam stumbled across the body of a child torn apart by a land mine. He fell to his knees and made a pledge to God to do whatever it took to help the people of Southern Sudan. He returned to Sudan several months later to run a mobile clinic. To fulfil his promise he ventured far across the nation, from the western town of Yei to the eastern villages of Boma. While passing the village of Nimule,on the Ugandan border, God sent him a message to build an orphanage for the children. The local people thought he was mad. At the time, the Lord’s Resistance Army, a brutal rebel militia, had kidnapped 30,000 children and murdered most villagers. He returned to the United States, sold his construction business and sent the money to Africa. Slowly, the orphanage began to take shape. During the day Childers cleared the brush and built the huts that would house the children. During the evening, he slept under a mosquito net slung from a tree: bible in one hand, AK-47 machine gun in the other. With the orphanage finished, Childers began to lead

armed missions to rescue children from the LRA. It wasn’t long before tales of his exploits spread and villagers began to call him The Machine Gun Preacher. Now the orphanage is the largest in Southern Sudan and has fed and housed over 1,000 children. Today, between 175 and 200 children call the orphanage home. Unfortunately, there are still many Sudanese children suffering and in need of rescue. “I was there last summer and they are true orphans. They don’t have parents because they were killed,” said Wolf. “He wanted to teach the orphans to help themselves and get them into university.” Childers also started a farm to grow vegetables. The orphans can work on the farm and learn a trade. The produce also feeds the children in the orphanage. Wolf and his wife Anita heard about a raffle on Childers’ bike and one that was in the film, so they inquired how to purchase tickets since they are from Canada. When he phoned the office, Wolf learned more about how to volunteer. He asked to speak to Childers himself to see if the organization was legit. Three days later, Childers phoned. “After 20 minutes, I felt that I knew him for 10 years.

That lead to my trip. My role now is to make more people aware of the good work that is being done,” said Wolf. “People know the story from the movie, but it wasn’t a blockbuster, so more people need to learn about it.” The Wolfs were hands on when it came to preparing and feeding the children at lunch. “For most children, it is the only meal they get. Then we went to the orphanage and I did a lot of maintenance work. The last half of the trip I went to the farm and built fences, Sudan style. They have a few goats for milk and food. The wire is soft, so you spend a lot of time repairing it to keep the animals in.” Last summer he went for two weeks and this year he is hoping to help out for four weeks. “I encourage people to look at themselves and see what God is calling us for. Going to Africa is not for everyone. I want to inspire people to do something, whatever that is for them,” said Wolf. Purchase a copy of Sam Childers’ biography, Another Man’s War, to read about his adventures in Southern Sudan. All proceeds go to Angels of East Africa and The Children’s Village projects.

Sorenson chosen to chair committee

30 PEOPLE WITH HEARING LOSS Qualified Participants Needed for Technology Field Test

We’re looking for people like you, who may be experiencing varying levels of hearing loss to evaluate a remarkable new line of digital hearing aids and a rehabilitative process that could be the solution to your difficulties. There’s no cost or obligation to participate! Call us toll-free today at one of the numbers below to see if you qualify for this Field Test. Potential candidates will be given a FREE hearing test to determine candidacy. Participants will be a given a FREE in-office demonstration, as well as the opportunity to evaluate and report their experience wearing the latest, most advanced hearing aid technology for 30 days. A full range of styles are available in this new technology, including the exceptionally discreet open-fit and invisible-in-the-canal models shown here:

Kevin Sorenson By Dan Jensen

Battle River-Crowfoot Member of Parliament has been unanimously elected as chair of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Public Accounts. “It is an honour and a privilege to serve Parliament in this capacity,” said Sorenson. “I am very pleased to have the opportunity to oversee this committee’s deliberation on the Public Accounts of Canada and the Reports of the Auditor General of Canada. “Few committees are chaired by non-government Members of Parliament. This committee is one of the most powerful parliamentary forums for holding the government of the day accountable for its spending of taxpayer dollars. The Auditor General of Canada reports to Parliament through this committee. All chapters of all Auditor General’s Reports are under the scrutiny of the Public Accounts committee.” Sorenson served as vice-chair of the sub-committee on National Security and then vice-chair of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Trade early in his career. After the Conservative Party formed government in 2006, he went on to chair the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development, the Special Committee on the Canadian Mission in Afghanistan, and the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security before being appointed by the Prime Minister to serve as Minister of State (Finance) in 2013. Sorenson hopes to maintain the confidence and good will expressed by the committee members. “As the chair, I want to be of assistance to the committee and facilitate its hearings and testimony by witnesses,” he said. “Canadian taxpayers expect our committees to work hard and achieve substantive results.”

Similar to choosing between contact lenses or glasses, you can decide with your hearing professional which hearing aid style would best suit you. Both styles have approximately the same performance and functions, but are fitted to the ear differently.

It’s almost a shame this technology isn’t more visible! Open-fit and IIC hearing aids are smaller and more sophisticated than ever, striking the perfect balance between size and performance. The elegant and highly discreet open-fit hearing aid fits perfectly on top of your ear, and the thin tube in your ear canal is designed to disappear against your skin. The new IIC hearing aid–now with wireless technology–provides all of the outstanding features and benefits you want in a digital hearing aid, minus the stigma that came with wearing one in the past.

Hearing tests are provided free of charge for adults ages 18 and older. Some conditions may apply. Please see clinic for details.

Sole City Shoes owners Daryl and Leta Shillington are proud to support the Battle River Community Initiative and Stollery Children’s Hospital. By Dan Jensen

Sole City Shoes is hoping to sell a lot of Toms product this spring. The downtown Camrose business will be donating $10 for each of the first 100 pairs of Toms shoes and sandals sold during the months of April and May and $5 for every pair beyond the first 100 (also to the end of May) to the Battle River Community Initiative in support of the Stollery Children’s Hospital. “If I sell 100 pairs I will donate $1,000 through the store,” said Sole City Shoes owner Daryl Shillington. “If I sell 150 pairs the donation will be $1,250.” The idea of raising funds for the Stollery was one that Shillington began to explore last fall after having a conversation concerning the now sixyear-old granddaughter of Lamb Ford Sales owner Cliff Denham (daughter of Nicole and Brett Denham), who has received Stollery care for a large portion of her young life. In her first year, Macy spent 186 days at the hospital, undergoing three surgeries as a result of her premature birth, feeding complications and diminished lung capacity. “The more I heard of Macy’s story the more I wanted to do,” said Shillington. “Hearing about what Nicole and Brett went through with their child really touched my heart.” Shillington chose Toms

shoes because of its track record in supporting projects around the world. “Toms is known almost worldwide as the One for One company,” said Shillington. “For every pair of shoes they sell they donate one pair to children who are in need. In the years since the owner started the program they have given away 50 million pairs of shoes.” Toms also helps with the restoration of sight, provides safe water services, and supports safe births for people in need. The company has deep experience in the regions it serves and expertise in poverty alleviation and international development. “I have always been impressed with what Toms has done and felt that involving them in this fundraiser would be a good way to share their story,” said Shillington. “I thought it was time that people heard about some of the good things that are going on in the world.” Toms won’t be making a direct financial contribution to the Battle River Community Initiative and the Stollery, but has agreed to provide handbags and sunglasses for free in-store draws. “I contacted the company’s representatives and they thanked me for what I had in mind and the extra

recognition,” said Shillington. The Battle River Community Initiative is hoping to raise $50,000 to fund one of the operating rooms at the Stollery. The current demand for OR space at the hospital exceeds the hospital’s capacity, leading to wait lists and cancellations of critical operating procedures on children and youth. An overloaded OR environment has resulted in periodic flooding, floor and wall damage, and a lack of storage for vital equipment. Redevelopment of the operating rooms will result in a functional design that incorporates child friendly aesthetics and minimizes stress and anxiety for patients, a facility that embodies and supports family centred care, an environment that enhances and promotes cross communication among service providers, a solution that maximizes the number and size of operating rooms and procedure rooms and allows capacity for future growth and a layout that achieves effective patient family flow as well as staff and material flow. The Denhams believe the Battle River Community Initiative is important because the Stollery, which is in Edmonton, is the children’s hospital for the Battle River area. “Our family has personally witnessed the caring and professionalism of the

skilled doctors and staff at the Stollery Hospital first hand and we believe that we are truly blessed to have such an amazing medical team so close to home,” said Cliff in an article published in The Camrose Booster last fall. “Without them we would not today enjoy our precious granddaughter, seeing her loving life that she almost lost. It is one of the best children’s hospitals in North America. We believe that an investment in the Battle River Community Initiative is an investment in the families and children of the Battle River area.” Macy has been able to make developmental gains over the past year with riding her bike and writing her name, and learned to ski this past week. She still grapples with discomfort on the inside, but to the world she projects an undeniable radiance and appreciation for life. She was featured on the cover of this season’s Heroes magazine from the Stollery. Donations for the Battle River Community Initiative are being accepted by the Battle River Community Foundation, which will funnel them directly to the Stollery. More information about the Stollery fundraising campaign may be obtained by going to www. stollerykids.com, or calling 1-877-393-1411.

Charles adds soul to Roots

By Murray Green

Soul sister Nuela Charles of Edmonton will be bringing her strong vocals to the Bailey Theatre during a Rose City Roots Music Society concert event on Saturday, April 9, at 8 p.m. Performing during the recent Juno Awards night in Calgary has created more buzz about her talents. Charles is creating a huge following with her own soulpop sound. She blends her soaring vocals, atmospheric electronics and future-retro vibe to create an indie-rock show that is gaining popularity across the nation. After releasing album Aware, she was the recipient of the first Edmonton Music Prize in 2013, $8,000, and the honour of the city’s best album. She has added a Lieutenant Governor General Emerging Artist Award to her showcase and earned a spot as a Top 12 finalist in The Peak Performance Project, an Alberta-wide talent contest. Three years later, Aware still maintains its saxy and sexy duet “Unfortunate Love,” featuring Darren Frank on the airwaves, with many requests. Three other songs from the album have made their way onto television programs. Charles will be adding special guest Jaron Annick Reid to the show in Camrose. Tickets are available online at www.baileytheatre. com or at the Bailey Theatre Box Office.

Gebo performs a tribute to Cash

Cornerstone

Town & Country 780-672-4111

By Murray Green

Gene Gebo grew up listening to and admiring Johnny Cash songs. Now he is giving a tribute to a country-rockabilly music legend with The Man in Black, A Tribute to Johnny Cash. The concert will be held at the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre on Saturday, April 16, at 8 p.m. “We were playing in Arizona at one of the RV resorts down there for the snowbirds. I did cover songs from various artists that were number one to 10 hits on the charts and people are very familiar with. I would throw in a couple of Johnny Cash numbers and people came up to me and said, why don’t I do a full set of Johnny Cash?” recalled Gebo. “That’s how it all started and it evolved from there. Every year we refine it and it is now worthy of Mr. Cash’s name. I’ve been doing this for 12 years.” Gebo offers a special tribute to Cash, who personified the perseverance of the human spirit. His influence on the country music scene cannot be overstated. Cash’s music continues to inspire and entertain millions of fans worldwide. “It is a tribute, I don’t do an impersonation. I tell stories about his life, stories about why some of the songs are written and who wrote them,” Gebo said. “People really enjoy that kind of a show. They want to know the history.” Gebo is a much admired musician and entertainer in his own right. This tribute will feature many of Cash’s number one hits.

FULL GOSPEL BUSINESSMEN’S FELLOWSHIP INTERNATIONAL  CAMROSE CHAPTER

APRIL MONTHLY BANQUET GOSPEL MUSIC & TESTIMONY BY

JOHN OKEMOW

“At our sold out show at Festival Place (Sherwood Park) on St. Patrick’s Day, one person came up to our producer and asked if I was lip-syncing. That is a great compliment because they thought it was actually Mr. Cash who was singing and not me,” shared Gebo. “I’ve been a Johnny Cash fan since I first heard him in 1955. I’ve played the guitar since I was 13 years of age.” Cash and his rockabilly friends performed a show in New Norway on May 5, 1957, so Gebo is excited to play in the same area as the Man in Black himself. “I look out at the audience and see people of all ages. He has touched music fans of various ages and his music

has stood the test of time. He touched my life and I want to share that with others,” he said. Gebo, who met Johnny Cash on four occasions, is an avid fan and holds his music and memory in high esteem. “The reason people are so drawn to Cash’s music is that it examines everyday life which people can relate to,” he said. “He sings about the good times and the bad.” Gebo said he doesn’t have a single favourite Cash song. “Favourites that people want me to play are ‘Folsom Prison Blues’ and ‘Ring of Fire.’ They are really all my favourites.” The demand is high for Gebo to do more Cash tributes. “I wouldn’t mind doing

John was raised by his grandparents who were both alcoholics. Being raised in an environment of alcoholism and domestic violence left him with the speech problem of stuttering. In 1964, God healed him of stuttering. He went on to get his pilot’s license, worked as a police officer, and then dedicated his life to full-time ministry, so that others could experience his God!

more country tributes like I started out doing, but when people call to book shows they want the Cash tribute. The last nine years I have gone to the Ponoka Stampede to perform country songs, so I enjoy that,” he said.

Messiah Lutheran welcomes new pastor By Dan Jensen

The new pastor at Messiah Lutheran Church is no stranger to Camrose and area. Calvin Skriver served at the Lutheran Church in Bawlf for 11 years from 1999 to 2010 before accepting a call from the church in Lac La Biche where he served for the last five and a half years. “We definitely have some connections,” said Calvin, who conducted his first service at Messiah on March 13. “It is a wonderful opportunity for me to be here.” The connection is the deepest for Calvin’s wife, Lori who, as the daughter of former Messiah Pastor Carl Kopperud, lived in Camrose from the age of two to 18. “I am thrilled to be back,” said Lori. “I have my mom (Ellie Kopperud) in town and my sister, Cheryl is not too far away. We also have a son, a daughter-in-law and grandchild here, and three more grand kids nearby in Sherwood Park. In a way it feels like a homecoming.” Calvin will work as senior pastor on a team that includes Messiah’s diaconal minister, Bev Swanson, who is working towards her ordination. “Church council is encouraging us to take the time to see how we can best work together and find our niche,” said Calvin. “I have been given the title of senior pastor but I see my job as being more of a co-leader. It’s going to take a while for me to get up to speed but it is looking like it will be a good time.” Calvin sees Messiah as a church with a long faith history and a strong presence in the community. “We have some people here who have many strengths in terms of leadership and involvement in the community,” he said. “There are quite a few of our members who have

been able to spend time serving God overseas, some as missionaries, and others who are concerned about making sure that things go right in this community and the wider world. They recognize that God is active and wants us to find ways to serve.” Messiah is a much larger church than the one in Lac LaBiche, which had about 80 members, approximately 30 of whom attended services on Sundays. “The congregation there is active and really has its pulse on the community, doing a number of different

things,” said Calvin. “They help out and encourage all the time, so it was a good place to be.” Along with his traditional pastoral duties with worship and education, Calvin was involved with a men’s shelter, called Out of the Elements, which in the winter serves five or six people per night. He also facilitated a men’s group which provided assistance with anger management, communication and parenting. “We did things like Christmas in November as part of parent teacher interviews at the school

where the kids came and selected items that were free and donated,” he said. “The gifts were wrapped so the people could do free Christmas shopping.” Calvin knows that God sees something useful and good in everyone and uses each of us to build and share the Kingdom with the world. “As we share our lives with each other we are able to see God’s hand in action,” he said. “In my own life I look for places where there is a need and if I have the abilities to help out with that

need then I get excited about becoming involved. The thing is to find out where that need is. Once I am able to ask questions and listen to people’s stories I get a sense of where God wants me to act and be.” While he loves listening to people talk, Calvin also very much needs to have time alone to “recompress.” “Finding the right balance is always a challenge but I believe that Jesus has given some pretty good examples and advice on how to get there,” he said. “If God is first then all the other important things fall so much more nicely into place.” Before entering seminary to train to become a pastor, Calvin received a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Calgary and worked as a systems analyst for a number of years. He is hoping to get connected with the volleyball leagues in Camrose and plans to be spending some time chasing the ball on area golf courses this summer. He and Lori, who works at a dialysis unit in Wetaskiwin, are currently renovating their home just south of the high school with their son, Mark, who is with Fjord Contracting. “We’ve always done a little renovation work on our homes,” said Calvin, “but this is somewhat of a bigger challenge.” Calvin is grateful for Lori, who keeps him grounded and reminds him that he is loved and lovable, even when he is not feeling or being so lovable. “That God-giftedness extends through our children, our grafted-in children, our grandchildren and back through our parents, grandparents and family beyond that,” he said. “God is good and seems to know how to add just the right complements to our lives.”

Government taking steps to improve public transportation By Bruce Hinkley, MLA, Wetaskiwin-Camrose

Our Alberta Government is taking steps toward improving public transportation for Albertans across our province. Alberta Transportation recently launched a provincial engagement plan for regional transit and rural bus service. It is my hope that everyone will weigh in with their thoughts on what transit in Alberta ought to look like. What could you use transit for? How could transit best serve you and your family? Our government is committed to regional public transit and rural bus services, and we want to know what you think the criteria should

be for these types of investments. Transportation Minister Brian Mason announced the third call for Green TRIP applications. Our goal with the new provincial transit strategy and funding criteria for future investment in municipal transit initiatives and rural bus service is to move beyond Green TRIP while maintaining our commitment to public transportation in rural and urban communities and focus on protecting the environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions as part of our Climate Leadership Plan. We know that Albertans support our plan to enhance public transit as a safe, affordable, accessible and environmentally

sustainable transportation option. Such options are increasingly important for Alberta’s growing and diversifying population. Everyone needs to be able to get where they need to go, whether to and from work, recreation centres, health care facilities or simply the grocery store. This can be especially challenging for seniors, students, people with disabilities and families working on a fixed income – folks who do not necessarily drive their own private vehicles. We are inviting you to tell us what you think the government ought to do about such transportation challenges. What criteria do you think municipalities should follow if they

want to access funding for transit operations? Should they take a regional focus, involving surrounding communities wherever it makes sense to do so? For more remote areas, what should a provincially supported rural bus service look like? What is your vision for an overarching transit strategy to guide Alberta’s policies and programs into the future? These are important questions…questions we know Albertans are prepared to answer. Visit the Alberta provincial engagement website www.albserta.ca/provincial-transitengagement.cfm and complete the online survey. Minister Mason and Alberta Transportation

staff will also listen to municipal and Indigenous leaders, along with industry officials and others, to ensure that all voices are heard as this important conversation takes place. During challenging economic times it is important that the government invest wisely in infrastructure projects that create jobs in the short and long terms and, ultimately, provide valuable service to Albertans. I look forward to working with you to develop the criteria for new municipal transit initiatives and rural bus services programs, along with a provincial transit strategy, to ensure that they best meet the needs of all Albertans. Help us get where we need to go.

Cam Thorburn of Caburn Contracting presented his concerns about the Camrose County pre-qualifying construction bid process during a regular meeting on March 22. He reported that he has 35 years of experience and his omittance of a couple of items shouldn’t have stopped him from qualifying. “I live in the county and have lived here all my life. I have been in charge of some of the largest projects in Alberta,” said Thorburn. “In 2001, I started my own company and we have completed a multi million dollar project for the City of Edmonton. “I understand what the County is trying to achieve here. It makes sense, but sometimes filters catch things we don’t necessarily need,” said Thorburn. “We should not be compared to other contractors, but on whether we can do the job.” Thorburn indicated his company has a good record and it was approved for projects in several counties, including the County of Flagstaff. “It doesn’t show that we just took 10 pieces of equipment for auction as part of our upgrading process. We have two new upgrades already and it doesn’t show that,” said Thorburn. “There is no line in the process that our 2016 construction comments will be completed by April. We are capable of moving the materials and finishing the job.” Council accepted Thorburn’s presentation as information and said they would get back to him. “I informed Cam Thorburn that it was too late to change the process for this year, but that the County will evaluate the process in the future, before next year’s pre-qualifying process,” said Reeve Don Gregorwich. “Public works and administration needs time to go through the process to see if, or what, changes should be made.”

Now you know… Of course Wetaskiwin and Camrose councils did not strike a deal to swap the Camrose ski jump and the beautiful, restored, Wetaskiwin water tower. Neither group has ever entertained such an ludicrous possibility. This scenario did, however, make for a wonderful April Fools joke. We hope our lead story from last week brought a smile to your face. Thank you for accepting our good-natured joke in the spirit in which it was intended.

2016 Grand Caravan Minivan with the driving dynamics of a sedan

Mike Bowman By Dan Jensen

The 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan at Camrose Chrysler has been Canada’s bestselling minivan for more than 30 years. Aggressive feel

Grand Caravan’s design is intended to convey the dynamic driving nature of the vehicle. A front fascia that sports the Dodge signature “split-crosshair” grille and quad headlamps combine for an aggressive feel. A sculpted rear fascia and rear “ring of fire” LED taillamps completes the look from the front to the back. The segment-exclusive Stow ‘n Place roof rack system provides the convenience of crossbars without compromising aerodynamics, since they attach to the side rails when not in use. Both the power liftgate and the power sliding doors feature obstacle detection, which reverses the door’s direction if an object is sensed in its path. Quiet Steel technology works to ensure a quiet cabin. Performance From the state-of-the art high-pressure die-cast aluminum block and VVT to sequential multiport fuel injection and high-flow intake and exhaust ports, the 3.6 litre Pentastar engine applies some of the most advanced automotive

engine technologies. The result is an exceptional blend of high torque, fuel-efficiency, low emissions, and quiet ride. The only thing better than numbers like 283 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque is the engine’s durability enhancing features, like an advanced oil filter system that helps eliminate oil spills and contributes to more environmentallyfriendly disposal with its incinderable filter element. The engine delivers highway mileage of 7.9 litres per 100 km and 12.2 litres per 100 km city, and a segmentexclusive fuel economizer feature that alters shift patterns to help improve realworld fuel efficiency. It’s also Flex Fuel capable, offering the choice of using either gasoline or ethanol (E85) fuel, or any combination of the two. Nobody does it better The comfort, luxury and superior craftsmanship of the Grand Caravan is a guaranteed double take. Well-appointed interior design details include soft-touch surfaces, chrome accents and must have features intuitively placed for ease of driver and passenger use. The integrated instrument panel offers a unified look with touches of chrome around the climate controls, shifter and gauge cluster

rings. The LED-illuminated gauges are positioned for easy viewing and the steering wheel houses cruise and audio controls. An available class-exclusive Super Console features generous storage accessible by both firstand second-row passengers, and a top tray cargo space that can be covered with a sliding door to keep travel items out of sight. The console’s four cup holders include two that can hold 355-mL cans and two that can accommodate up to one litre bottles. The available tri-zone automatic temperature control system keeps everyone comfortable via its electronic thermostats, and the push of a button activates the available classexclusive full-circumference heated steering wheel, keeping the driver’s hands warm. Grand Caravan’s interior was intuitively designed to flip, fold and tumble with your needs. With the ability to carry up to seven people, an amazing amount of cargo or any combination in between with 81 possible seating configurations, neither your crew nor your cargo will feel the squeeze. Bringing home purchases from home improvement or big box stores isn’t a problem either. Simply stow secondand third-row seats into

the floor with the available Super Stow ‘n Go to reveal a flat floor with 4,072 litres of cargo space without ever having to remove a seat. Even everyday errands are made easier with Grand Caravan. The 225-mm deep in-floor storage bins behind the third row allows you to load and unload groceries with ease, without worrying about produce running out and under the seats. Let me entertain you The available segmentexclusive second- and thirdrow independent DVD entertainment system features nine-inch screens, two sets of wireless headphones, a remote, and input jacks to accommodate gaming and video possibilities during long trips to virtually eliminate the “are we there yet?” questions from the passengers. Best of all, the screens can work independently, with one showing a movie while the other is used for video games. The video system can be operated from either the rear seat entertainment unit or the radio head unit. Whether your passengers are watching a DVD or listening to your favourite music, everyone will appreciate the available nine-speaker Infinity sound system with an 11-channel amplifier that serves 506 watts of power. An eight-

inch, two-channel, dualvoice coil subwoofer means superb quality surround sound for everyone. Safety In adverse weather conditions, the standard Electronic Stability Control with Electronic Brake Assist works with an advanced all-speed traction control system to help the driver maintain vehicle directional stability and limit oversteering or understeering. Electronic Brake Assist detects conditions when maximum force is needed for optimum stopping power. A new driver’s inflatable knee blocker helps reduce injuries to lower extremities on impact with the dashboard and helps properly position the driver in relation to the front air bags. The Blind Spot Monitoring System continually monitors blind zones on either side of the vehicle. When an object is detected, an indicator light illuminates in the appropriate exterior mirror and an optional audible notification is provided. You can see the 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan at Camrose Chrysler on Highway 13 East. Phone 780672-2476 or toll free, 1-800563-4202 and ask for a member of the friendly sales team.

Some thoughts on music and Nazism

The word “Nazi” and its cognates have lately become commonplace in contemporary political and cultural discourse. The news and the blogosphere are peppered with frequent references to Nazism and Hitler, especially in editorials concerning Donald Trump and his campaign to lead the Republican Party. Not only is Trump tarred with these epithets—Nazi, Hitler, fascist—by his critics on the political left, but they even come up in internal battles within the conserAlexander Carpenter, vative media. Most recently, the Music, Augustana well-known conservative radio Campus, University and television host Glenn Beck of Alberta called one of his competitors—the journalist and right-wing gadfly Milo Yiannopoulos—“Goebbels,” for writing an editorial in support of Trump. My column is not about Trump or American politics as such: rather, all of the bandying about of these words that has given me cause to think about their recent uses in relation to music criticism. While “Nazi” is not really a regular term employed in music criticism or musicology, it nonetheless comes up from time to time, in two main contexts: either when musicians are accused of or openly assert political or ideological loyalties to National Socialism—which is not very common, for obvious reasons—or when musicians flirt with the aesthetics of Nazism or fascism. As scholars such as Michael Kater have demonstrated, there is actually no such thing as “Nazi music.” A Nazi aesthetic for music was never explicitly identified by Hitler and his supporters: they were concerned primarily with identifying and promoting a rather vague, aspirational concept of German-ness in music. Hitler’s government typically simply defined German music in the negative: it was not, for instance, Jewish or “degenerate” music, which encompassed any music that was too modern or alien-sounding for the tastes of the Reich. While many German musicians and composers in the 1930s and 40s did try to compose and perform music that would meet with government approval, there was no prescription for Nazi music in Hitler’s Germany. The idea of “Nazi music” in today’s world, then, is not only anachronistic, but it also has no real meaning. Contemporary pop music critics might invoke the term “Nazi”— albeit imprecisely—to describe an approach to music that combines a martial or anarchic sound with any sort of totalitarian visual aesthetic. In the 1970s and 80s, for example, bands like the Sex Pistols and Joy Division flirted with swastikas and references to Nazism; more recently, performers like Marilyn Manson have combined a sort of Nazi chic—jackboots and provocative militaristic uniforms—with pounding industrial-rock rhythms, gaining attention and inviting criticism as they seem to coyly indulge in what Susan Sontag famously called “fascinating fascism.” More cogently, the very popular German industrial-metal band Rammstein finds itself frequently labeled a Nazi band: while the group denies any connections to Nazism, it nonetheless hints at the possibility through its aggressive music, barked German lyrics, and stage designs that are evocative of mass political rallies. While critics and commentators have claimed, for example, that Rammstein makes “music to invade Poland to,” such inflammatory rhetoric hardly constitutes legitimate music criticism, and indeed fails to address the music of Rammstein at all. In a similar vein, last December the feminist cultural critic Camille Paglia published a pointed editorial about Taylor Swift in The Hollywood Reporter. Paglia took a swipe at Swift’s nascent celebrity-pop feminism, and called her out for failing to be meaningfully empowered. Fair enough: but Paglia goes further in her editorial, calling Swift a “Nazi Barbie” and likening her to “the fascist blondes who ruled the social scene during my youth.” This is a very provocative statement, one that lit up the Internet for weeks. “Nazi Barbie” is a striking phrase, and Paglia’s critique seems to make some sense, intuitively, with respect to Swift embodying a kind of Aryan perfection that is glorified and mass marketed via the music industry. Sober second thought, however, reveals Paglia’s indictment as a cheap shot—Swift is as much a Nazi as Trump or Rammstein—that doesn’t address Swift’s music and merely trades upon the frisson that inevitably accompanies the use of such labels. An examination of how and when the term “Nazi” is used in the discourse of music criticism reveals the absurdity of broadly applying the word and its cognates—fascist, Hitler, Goebbels—to contemporary culture and politics. It is a word that is so overused, and in so many different contexts, that it has effectively become meaningless, or at least ideologically neutral. This column is not offering a defense of Donald Trump against his detractors, or of Taylor Swift and Rammstein, for that matter; instead, it merely attempts to point out some of the careless and lazy thinking that characterizes contemporary cultural and political discourse.

Liberals moving forward on suicide and euthanasia Kevin Sorenson, MP Battle River-Crowfoot

Over the years, many constituents have contacted me to express their concerns over physician assisted suicide, or euthanasia. In 2010, then Bloc Quebecois MP Francine Lalonde introduced a Private Member’s Bill in the House of Commons that eventually came to a vote. We were opposed to her proposed euthanasia law and so were the majority of Members of Parliament who voted down her bill. It is only a few years later, and the unelected Supreme Court Justices have pushed the issue of assisted-suicide back onto the federal political agenda, demanding Parliament to pass a law before the House rises this summer. As your Member of Parliament I am skeptical and find it worrisome that, once again, a few unelected justices are actively short-circuiting the law-making process Canada has that provides for democratically elected representatives of the people to decide these issues. It seems to me that too often policy decisions are repeatedly forced on our legislatures by judicial activists. We all know of issues that have been brought forward repeatedly until the desired outcome of the minority is achieved. Most recently, the Report of the Special Joint Committee on PhysicianAssisted Dying has been tabled in Parliament. This committee, dominated by a majority of Liberal Members of Parliament, makes

recommendations in its report that even go far beyond the issues raised by the Supreme Court, and ignores deeply held beliefs that many Canadians share. Conservative MPs on the committee wrote a dissenting report entitled, “More Safeguards are needed for the Vulnerable” (starting at page 51, available at http://www. parl.gc.ca/Committees/en/ PDAM). Many of us believe that the conscience rights of individuals, organizations and institutions should be protected. Conservatives on the committee felt strongly that the report does not reflect this basic tenant. We want protection for physicians who will refuse – because of reasons of religion or conscience – to perform a ‘lifeending’ procedure. They want the freedom to refuse to ‘refer’ a patient to a medical practitioner who will conduct such procedures. The Liberal government should not force Canadian medical professionals to violate their Hippocratic Oath if they feel they cannot do it. The Liberals do not agree, for example, that a person must suffer from a terminal illness in order to qualify for assisted suicide or euthanasia. They even want to include young people (under the age of majority) to have access to assisted dying in future legislation. We want laws that would require effective palliative care to be offered to competent adults requesting physician assisted suicide. Euthanasia should not

be used in place of palliative care. Many of us are concerned about the officials (doctors, psychiatrists, lawyers, and/or judges) and the processes that will have the authority to approve assisted suicide or euthanasia. The recommendations in the committee’s report place vulnerable Canadians, including seniors, at risk in my view. The report ignores the need for stringent safeguards. Many are viewing this report as the most extreme set of recommendations for legislation to govern doctor assisted suicide in the world. What the Liberals have planned goes beyond the laws in all of the jurisdictions that currently have such legislation. It is disappointing that the Liberals are now finished with this matter having held only 16 meetings, heard from 61 witnesses and considered about a 100 written submissions. They will be launching their draft Bill in the House of Commons soon. I hope everyone takes a moment to contact the Prime Minister, the Liberal Justice Minister and Health Minister to share their opinion. As always, I invite everyone in our riding to please send me a copy.

Gathering place for Aboriginal students at Augustana Campus Kenwood “Ken” Lloyd Osness May 3, 1962 ~ March 31, 2016

Wahkohtowin Lodge is a welcoming space on Augustana Campus, University of Alberta that brings together Métis, Inuit and First Nations students and provides a place where they can share their diverse cultures with the campus and community.

Wahkohtowin Lodge, a gathering place for Aboriginal students at the University of Alberta’s Augustana Campus, has officially opened, offering a space where Indigenous students are supported and their cultures celebrated. Wahkohtowin Lodge provides Augustana’s Métis, Inuit and First Nations students from near and far a welcoming space where they can connect with one another, draw support from visiting Elders and Indigenous community members, and share their diverse cultures with the campus and community. “Wahkohtowin Lodge is especially exciting for Augustana Campus because it furthers our commitment to serving Indigenous students and to honouring the recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission,” said Allen Berger, dean of the campus. “As a comfortable space where Indigenous students can informally gather or meet with Elders and university staff, and as a space that will support programs designed to engage the entire campus and larger community, Wahkohtowin Lodge symbolizes a way to move forward in greater understanding of Indigenous cultures.” Located in the Forum Building at the heart of Augustana Campus in Camrose, the lodge was created in the spirit of wahkohtowin, a Nehiyaw (Plains Cree) concept meaning “kinship.” The term refers to the ties of mutuality and reciprocity that create responsibilities to other human beings, animals and the land. With its tree trunk wall, tipi-shaped ceiling feature and fibre optic stars, Wahkohtowin Lodge was designed to reflect the cultures of Indigenous students and at the same time provide a basis for reconciliation by making it possible for non-Indigenous students, faculty and staff to learn about these cultures. “Students succeed best when they feel a deep and abiding bond with their peers, their professors, and ultimately, their campus. As a community, it is our responsibility to create the opportunities that will form and nurture these connections – the university must be a place that fosters a sense of belonging,” said David Turpin, president of the University of Alberta. “The grand opening of Wahkohtowin Lodge is just one example of how our response to the TRC’s calls to action will demonstrate our commitment to meeting these needs for our First Nations, Inuit and Métis students.” The creation of Wahkohtowin Lodge included working closely with Aboriginal students and Elders from the nearby community of Maskwacis and other Indigenous communities. The incorporation of Nehiyaw language through the lodge’s name acknowledges that Augustana Campus is situated on the traditional territory of the Nehiyaw and the proximity to the Ermineskin, Samson, Montana and Louis Bull First Nations in Maskwacis. “I am especially grateful to our own Aboriginal students and to the many Elders who participated in planning Wahkohtowin Lodge,” Berger said. “Their visions for needed programming and student services and their advice on design and the incorporation of appropriate cultural elements guided us every step of the way.” Wahkohtowin Lodge is decorated with paintings from Inuit and local Indigenous artists as well as those from neighbouring Treaty 6, 7 and 8 territories. It houses an Aboriginal Student Services Office as well as a private room where students and Elders can visit, programming space for campus and community events, a small meeting room and study space for Aboriginal students. The space will also host future workshops exploring the Truth and Reconciliation recommendations. The first dedicated space of its kind for Augustana’s ever-growing population of Indigenous students, Wahkohtowin Lodge also serves a student body of all nationalities

July 10, 1931 ~ March 30, 2016 Harold Fredrick Miller was born on July 10, 1931 to Fred and Agda Miller in Camrose, Alberta. Harold was the eldest of four children raised on the family farm: Harold, Rodney, Arlene, and Diane. Harold attended the Sulitjelma School located on his family’s property from grades one through eight, and continued his schooling at Hay Lakes School until he was needed at home due to his father’s declining health. Harold took over his father’s farm in 1950 and farmed actively until 1997. Harold resided on the property until his passing. Harold was baptized into the Christian faith, attended Sunday School, and was confirmed at St. Joseph Lutheran Church. On February 7, 1959, Harold was united in marriage with Miss Shirley Haugen from the Spilstead district. Shirley and Harold were blessed with five children: Freddy, Ilene, Cathy, Kevin and Linda. Harold and Shirley were lifelong members of St. Joseph Lutheran Congregation. Harold passed away on March 30, 2016 in the Grey Nuns Hospital in Edmonton. Harold’s two passions were kids and travel. For many years, Harold taught Cubs, coached baseball and hockey, and he always believed that education was important. Because he was not able to complete high school, he insisted that each of his children finish high school and receive a training. There was no one happier when the grandchildren came. Whether it was being down on the floor pretending, working in the shop with the boys, or teaching the three youngest how to drive, “Grandpa” was in his element. Harold also loved to travel. Road trips to the mountains and annual trips to Hawaii were among his favourite activities, always with best friend and partner, Mom, at his side. Harold was predeceased by his parents; by his sister Arlene; his niece Shelley; his brother Rodney; and his grandson Lars. Harold leaves to mourn Shirley, his wife of 57 years; his children Fred [Sandy], Ilene [Alan], Cathy [Brent], Kevin [Chris], and Linda [Kevin]; his grandchildren Amanda [Nathan], Jacob [Alix], Kirsti, Annelise [Kris], Brittany, Nels, Olav, Seth and Becky; sister Diane (Norman) Schultz; numerous nieces and nephews; and many friends. Blessed be his memory. A funeral service was held on Saturday, April 2, 2016, at 2:00 p.m. from St. Joseph Lutheran Church, Hay Lakes, with Rev. Charlotte Strecker-Baseler officiating. Interment has taken place in the St. Joseph’s Cemetery. If family and friends so desire, memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to the Stollery Children’s Hospital or to St. Joseph Lutheran Church.

Kodiaks battle Bandits in AJHL southern final series

By Murray Green The Camrose Kodiaks eliminated the Okotoks Oilers in five games in the southern division playoffs in the Alberta Junior Hockey League on March 26. Nelson Gadoury led the offence with a goal and two assists and Tanner Younghans added a goal and an assist to give the Kodiaks a 4-2 victory. After a scoreless opening period, Younghans and defenceman Stefan Danielson notched tallies in the middle frame as the Kodiaks outshot the Oilers 21-4. “It is important to score first because it gives the guys confidence,” said Gadoury. “When an older player or veteran scores early, it takes some pressure off of the younger guys. It’s a confidence thing.” Okotoks fought back with two in the third to tie the contest, but defenceman Jack Thomas and Gadoury regained the Camrose lead later in the game. Goalie Patrick Gora turned away 21 of 23 shots, while Camrose fired 35 shots on goal. The Oilers fought off elimination in the fourth game with a 2-1 win. “We didn’t execute the game and it was kind of our fault. In game four they came out flying and that was the first time they scored first in the series,” Gadoury reflected. “They wanted it more then we did and you have to give them that.” Cole McBride garnered a short handed marker in the second for the lone Cam-

rose tally. Gora stopped 26 of the 28 shots he faced. The Kodiaks had 30 shots on goal on March 24. The Kodiaks earned the right to take on Brooks in the south final.

“I expect a tough series. They are a good hockey team and their record speaks for itself. The way they handled the first series was pretty impressive, so I expect them to be

physical. They have been off for a while and biting at the bit to get at it. We have had time off too, so the games will be interesting,” said Gadoury. “We have to play a full

60 minutes. I recall one game where we were up 3-1 and we allowed them to come back on us because we took the foot off the pedal for three minutes. They are a good hockey team, so if we make a mistake they will capitalize on it.” Brooks and Camrose games are always entertaining. “It is going to be exciting hockey and we just have to keep the emotions in check for sure,” said Gadoury. “Coach preaches discipline, even more so in the playoffs. Special teams are so important and we can’t give them an extra opportunities. Brooks fans make it exciting because they don’t like us, but it is a great atmosphere to play in. I want everyone to come out here and cheer for us. It means so much to the boys and myself as well.” Bear facts Tickets are on sale for game six (if necessary) in Camrose on April 10 at the Kodiaks office from 1 to 4 p.m. Monday to Friday. The box office also opens one hour before game time. All games in the series begin at 7 p.m.

Vikings win bronze at curling nationals By Murray Green

After earning Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference silver medals, the Augustana Vikings headed to nationals where they captured bronze. The Augustana men’s curling team went to the national championships at Fanshawe College in London, ON, from March 23 to 26. Augustana struggled early at nationals but

strung enough wins together to find themselves in playoff contention. In the second playoff tiebreaker, the Vikings took on the Fleming Knights. The Vikings led 5-3 after five ends, but the Knights had the hammer. The Vikings stole four over the next three ends to win 9-3. Augustana advanced to battle the Humber Hawks in one semifinal. The Hawks scored first

in the third end and took a 1-0 lead, but the Vikings came right back, scoring four in the fourth to go up 4-1. Humber scored two in the next end, but was down 4-3 to Augustana after five. The teams went back and forth and the Vikings held a 6-4 lead with two ends to play. Humber came back in the ninth and scored two and then stole one in the

10th to cap the come back and win 7-6. The Hawks reached the final to take on the Sault Cougars. Humber won 8-4 in the final. Augustana won the Fair Play award. Coach of the Year honours went to Roger Galenza of the Vikings. In round robin play, Sault and Humber had a record of 5-2. Then came the tiebreakers. Three teams

– the Fleming Knights, Augustana Vikings and Fanshawe Falcons – all finished with a record of 4-3. After determining their placing, the Vikings won in extra ends 7-6 over the Falcons to earn the right to play the Knights. Augustana curlers were skip Brad Schroeder, third Colton Simard, second Andrew Klassen, lead Benjamin Bates and spare Chris McGillis.

Dogs of all shapes, sizes and breeds show their best Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster

The Battle River Canine Association held the first of its two annual all breed dog shows at the Camrose Regional Exhibition on March 25 to 27. Show dogs, along with their handlers and owners, came from areas across the region to strut their stuff and compete for ribbons and titles in a variety of categories. The next show will take place in October at the CRE. Top left picture, Gaylen Boutet blow dries Dallas, the six-yearold English Cocker, a grand Champion in Agility and Rally competitions. Top right picture, Lindsay Benbow owner of Mac, a 15-month-old apricot miniature poodle, proudly shows off the pup’s immodest love for the camera.

Handlers are seen here setting up their dogs’ stances for the judge as he passes down the line, inspecting each one on standards such as general appearance, movement, temperament, coat, colors, ear shape and placement of feet and tail.

Aurora, a 10-month-old Alaskan malamute, stood still for grooming and prepping by Nancy Powell. Dogs are brushed, powdered, sprayed and fluffed in preparation for the ring.

These little handlers prove you are never too young to start showing dogs, as they confidently lead their charges around the ring during the Battle River Canine all breed spring dog show held at the CRE March 25 to 27. This pup decided a little social interaction was in order as he/she stopped to visit with another competitor.

This dog handler was focused and ready for ribbons as she trotted her competitor up and down the ring in front of the watchful eyes of the judges. Despite a multitude of the distractions this dog stayed perfectly on task.

Helpful Tips for Writing Classified Ads Which Get Results! Be Thorough

Sure you want your ad to stand out from the rest, but don’t skimp on the sort of information that sells. The item’s condition, size, age, brand name, and color are some of the basics readers want to know. Without them, your ad may be overlooked.

Steer Clear of Abbreviations

Okay, so you want to include all the important basics. Don’t use strange abbreviations because our ads are designed to spell all the important details. Besides, you are not paying by the line, but by the word, so there is really no need to abbreviate.

Be Honest

Exaggerating your item’s finer points may bring in a lot of responses, but a buyer who’s misled won’t appreciate it and will take his business somewhere else.

State Your Price

The cost of an item is one of the most important concerns of want ad readers. Ads showing prices are ones which get results. Giving a price also serves to “weed out” those buyers not in your price range.

Be Accessible

Including a telephone number or address puts you in touch with potential buyers. Be sure to state the hours you can be reached: a caller who can’t get through the first time often won’t call again.

Don’t hesitate to call us with any questions or problems you may have regarding advertising. Our professionally trained sales staff know the ropes, and would be happy to pass their know-how on to you. That’s why we’re here, to help you get the results you deserve.
